Abstract
- It has been well-recognized that clustered Interference alignment (IA) can provide remarkable interference suppression performance for the existing small cell networks (SCNs). There is also a tendency that full-duplex (FD) radios would replace the half-duplex radios at future small base stations (SBSs). In this context, the intra-cell and inter-cell interference in SCNs would become much more serious, where the performance of clustered IA has not been evaluated yet. In this paper, we explore the maximum achievable sum-rate of the FD-based SCNs when clustered IA combined with power control strategy is applied. To achieve this, a mixed-integer optimization problem is formulated, which is furtherly decoupled into two subproblems for ease of handling. Then we propose the minimized rate loss (MRL) algorithm to address the clustering subproblem and a convex approximation method to address the power control subproblem. The two subproblems are performed alternatively till the sum-rate gains convergence. Preliminary simulations clearly demonstrate that the achievable sum-rate is limited by the number of antennas at the users. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
