In this paper, a framework is proposed to improve the effectiveness of the long-term-evolution vehicle-to-vehicle (LTE-V2V) communication system, where the uplink channel of the cellular user equipment (CUE) is reused by multiple V2V links. Since the orthogonal channels occupied by each CUEs are multiplexed by multiple V2V links, the serious interference is generated in the co-tier layer and cross-tier layer. In order to minimize the co-channel interference between CUE link and V2V links, an optimized resource sharing scheme is proposed. Firstly, Fuzzy C-means (FCM) algorithm is proposed to perform the clustering based on the geographical location characteristics of V2V links. In the FCM algorithm, the adjacent V2V links are grouped into a cluster to facilitate the solution of the channel allocation problem. Assuring the V2V links in the same cluster do not share the same channel, the adjacent V2V links are avoided to reuse the same channel. On this basis, the use of reasonable channel allocation scheme can effectively reduce the co-channel interference. Considering that the channel state information (CSI) of mobile links is slowly faded, the total system capacity is maximized by leveraging the CSI while the reliability can be guaranteed for all V2V links. The outage probability constraint is used to ensure the reliability of all V2V links. The channel assignment problem of V2V links is formulated as a weighted two-dimensional matching problem, and the interference bipartite graph is constructed. Finally, Kuhn Munkras (KM) algorithm is introduced to allocate the uplink orthogonal channel of CUEs for the V2V links in the same class in order to maximize the total system capacity. Numerical simulation results show that the algorithm can improve the total system capacity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
