Abstract:

Device-to-device(D2D)communication enables direct data transmission between mobile terminals(MT)in proximity by reusing the frequency of traditional cellular network.It is capable to improve individual quality of service(QoS),reduce MT's energy consumption and expand cell coverage.Particularly,when multiple MT request the same content of service at cell edge,some MT in their vicinity could relay the data to them by means of D2D multicast transmission.However,due to the limited battery lifetime of MT and spectral reusing between D2D and cellular communications,relay node selection and power control are two key techniques needed to be addressed.A particle swarm optimization based scheme to minimize the sum power consumption of mobile relays while guarantee the individual QoS requirement by incorporating both relay node selection and power control was proposed.The efficacy of our scheme was extensively verified through numerical results.

Key words: mobile relay, D2D multicast, energy saving, quality of service, relay node selection, power contro1, particle swarm optimization
