We investigate the problem of multi-user radio resource allocation for orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) amplify-and-forward (AF) relays. In the single-user case, the problem reduces to the well know assignment problem, which maximizes the user rate. For the multi-user case we devise a resource allocation algorithm to achieve max-min fairness. We find max-min fairness since it can provide almost flat ubiquitous coverage. We start by formulating a convex optimization, which takes a parameter that asymptotically makes the optimization produce max-min fair rates. Since the optimization is a convex problem, we are able to devise a suboptimal gradient-based algorithm to solve it quickly. Simulations show that the algorithm achieves results very close to the optimum solutions due to its gradient origins. |
