D2D-based V2V Communications with Latency and Reliability Constraints

Paper i proceeding, 2014

Direct device-to-device (D2D) communication has been proposed as a possible enabler for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) applications, where the incurred intra-cell interference and the stringent latency and reliability requirements are challenging issues. In this paper, we investigate the radio resource management problem for D2D-based V2V communications. Firstly, we analyze and mathematically model the actual requirements for vehicular communications and traditional cellular links. Secondly, we propose a problem formulation to fulfill these requirements, and then a Separate Resource Block allocation and Power control (SRBP) algorithm to solve this problem. Finally, simulations are presented to illustrate the improved performance of the proposed SRBP scheme compared to some other existing methods.
