- Abstract
- This work studies distributed uplink reception for a device-to-device (D2D) underlaid cloud radio access network (C-RAN) system, in which cellular user equipments (UEs) communicate with a baseband processing unit (BBU) through a set of distributed remote radio heads (RRHs) that are connected to the BBU via finite-capacity fronthaul links. The uplink of C-RAN system is interfered by a number of D2D communication links that operate in the same frequency band. Most of prior works on C-RAN uplink systems prescribe that the noise signals of different RRHs do not have statistical correlation. However, in the D2D underlaid C-RAN uplink systems, the effective noise signals that contain the D2D interference signals may have inter-RRH cross correlation. This work proposes an improved distributed reception scheme which leverages the noise correlation information. To tackle non-convex sum-rate maximization problem, a successive convex approximation (SCA) based iterative algorithm is derived that guarantees monotonically non-decreasing sum-rates. Some numerical results are presented that validate the advantages of the proposed scheme.
