Radio Resource Management for D2D-Based V2V Communication.

Direct device-to-device (D2D) links are proposed as a possible enabler for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications, where the incurred intracell interference and the stringent latency and reliability requirements are challenging issues. In this paper, we investigate the radio resource management problem for D2D-based V2V communication. First, we analyze and transform the latency and reliability requirements of V2V communication into optimization constraints that are computable using only the slowly varying channel information. This transformation opens up the possibility of extending certain existing D2D techniques to cater to V2V communication. Second, we propose a problem formulation that fulfills the different requirements of V2V communication and traditional cellular communication. Moreover, a Separate resOurce bLock and powEr allocatioN (SOLEN) algorithm is proposed to solve this problem. Finally, simulations are presented to evaluate different schemes, which illustrate the necessity of careful design when extending D2D methods to V2V communication, as well as show promising performance of the proposed SOLEN algorithm.
