Interoperator Channel Management for Dynamic Spectrum Allocation between Different Radio Systems

Abstract

For the efficient use of frequency resources, dynamic spectrum allocation (DSA) between different radio systems is promising. In DSA, our approach is to allow different mobile network operators to use the same shared channel without the inter base station (BS) interference. However, this approach is computationally very expensive. Therefore, we formulate this reuse channel allocation as a 0-1 mixed-integer linier programming problem and propose an algorithm to improve the satisfaction of each BS and the time and frequency continuities, which can be used to solve the problem in practical time. Our evaluation demonstrates that our proposed algorithm can improve the satisfaction with the time and frequency continuities simultaneously.
