A Practical Resource Allocation Approach for Interference Management in LTE Uplink Transmission

Liying Li, Gang Wu, Hongbing Xu, Geoffrey Ye Li, Xin Feng

Abstract


In this paper, we investigate power control and resource allocation for long-term evolution (LTE) uplink. We develop an efficient way to improve system performance, especially for those users at the edge of a cell, by taking interference to and from adjacent cells into consideration. Simulation results show that the spectrum efficiency for edge users is improved by about 20% over the independent resource allocation and by about 10% over the soft frequency reuse scheme.
