Abstract:The focus of this thesis is on studying the tradeoff between efficiency and fairness in interference-limited cellular networks. We start by characterizing the optimal tradeoff between efficiency and fairness in general resource allocation problems, including those encountered in cellular networks, where efficiency is measured by the sum-rate and fairness is measured by the Jain's fairness index. Among the commonly-used methods to approach these problems is the one based on the α-fair policy. Analyzing this pol… Show more
