A Latency and Reliability Guaranteed Resource Allocation Scheme for LTE V2V Communication Systems

Abstract

By leveraging direct device-to-device interaction, LTE vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication becomes a promising solution to meet the stringent requirements of vehicular communication. In this paper, we propose jointly optimizing the radio resource, power allocation, and modulation/coding schemes of the V2V communications, in order to guarantee the latency and reliability requirements of vehicular user equipments (VUEs) while maximizing the information rate of cellular user equipment (CUE). To ensure the solvability of this optimization problem, the packet latency constraint is first transformed into a data rate constraint based on random network analysis by adopting the Poisson distribution model for the packet arrival process of each VUE. Then, utilizing the Lagrange dual decomposition and binary search, a resource management algorithm is proposed to find the optimal solution of joint optimization problem with reasonable complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed radio resource management scheme can reduce the interference from V2V communication to CUEs and ensure the latency and reliability requirements of V2V communication.
