D2D communication is a communication that allows users to communicate without passing through the Base Station (BS). The D2D Underlaying communication system can use the same Resource Block (RB) as the Cellular User Equipment (CUE). Implementing this communication system can ease the burden on BS and can transmit data with higher throughput in low power. However, using RB simultaneously can cause interference and therefore an RB allocation scheme is needed. The algorithm used in the scheduling process of the uplink RB owned by CUE to the D2D pair is the joint greedy algorithm with sectoring scheme. This work used a scenario where the value of the D2D pair are varied. The parameters measured in this simulation were sum-rate, spectral efficiency and fairness. The simulation results show that the joint greedy with sectoring allocation scheme has good energy efficiency and spectral efficiency values of 6.063× 106 bps/watt and 16.982 bps/Hz. On the other hand, the D2D fairness value in the joint greedy with sectoring allocation scheme is 0.886.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
