Dynamic Resource Allocation Scheme Using Cooperative Game for Multimedia Services in LTE Advanced System

Abstract

In LTE Advanced system, it is critical to carry on various types of services for different user applications. Obviously, the system resource requirements are quite different for each individual service. In order to allocate and schedule limited resources reasonably, the cooperative game model is established and studied in our paper; furthermore, a novel scheme with dynamical system resource allocating and scheduling is also proposed, where the corresponding resources for each kind of service can be dynamically allocated according to the current traffic status. Consequently, the priorities of users are determined based on the service attribute and channel status. Results show that the spectral efficiency is enhanced effectively by our proposed scheme; in the mean time, the performances of multimedia services are also improved.
