A New Optimization Model for Dynamic Power and Sub-Carrier Allocations in Packet-Centric OFDMA Cells

• It is well known that applying dynamic resource allocation to down-link transmissions of OFDMAsystems provides a significant performance increase, by taking advantage of diversity effects. In order toquantify the maximum possible gain achievable by applying dynamic mechanisms, several optimizationproblems have been suggested for studying a dynamic system's optimal behaviour. However, so far theseoptimization approaches do not take sophisticated system requirements into account, as there are differentpacket-arrival processes, buffering constraints, scheduling policies, as well as QoS requirements per serviceclass. In this paper we present a new optimization model that is based on a packet-centric system view andincludes the system requirements mentioned above. We compare the performance results of the conventionaland the new approach and study the impact of dynamic power allocation in both cases.
