Abstract:This paper studies the uplink resource allocation problem in NB-IoT networks. We aim to maximize the network's energy efficiency to serve devices in need for long battery lifetime. Also, the network energy efficiency is affected by the associated UEs to candidates, carrying the scheduling information for UEs. For this reason, we investigate the joint resource allocation and Candidate-UE association problem in the uplink (UL) in NB-IoT. The resource allocation problem allocates the UEs with the suitable schedul… Show more
