Title
Optimal dynamic spectrum management for DSL interference/broadcast channel
Abstract
In this paper, we consider optimal dynamic spectrum management (DSM) for a downstream (DS) DSL scenario in which users are divided into a few separate groups, where vector encoding based signal coordination can be applied in each group and spectrum coordination is possible for all users. This can be seen as a mixed interference/broadcast channel (IF/BC) scenario. We investigate several candidates for vector encoding the signals inside the groups, including the linear zero-forcing (ZF) pre-compensator, ZF Tomlinson-Harashima pre-coder (THP), optimal linear pre-compensator (OLP), and THP with optimal transmit filters. The calculation of the optimal transmit filters (for both the linear pre-compensator and THP) is a non-convex problem. To resolve this problem, we develop a generalized duality between the IF/BC and IF/multiple-access channel (MAC). In order to achieve the highest data rates, optimal spectrum balancing (OSB) is applied to all users on top of the vector encoding inside the groups. Simulation results show that the grouped THP with optimal transmit filters achieves considerably higher bit rates than the other schemes. The resulting algorithm is referred to as the IF/BC-OSB algorithm, and encompasses the OSB (i.e., IF-OSB) and the earlier developed BC-OSB algorithm as special cases.
