A Survey on Joint Uplink/Downlink Resource Allocation in OFDMA Networks

Abstract

Resource allocation is one of the major considerations in efficient usage of a wireless network. Emergence of new computing/ communication platforms have resulted in usage of such technologies for applications such as mobile gaming, video conferencing etc; these trends in turn places greater demand on symmetrical quality. Existing literature mainly focuses on resource allocation for uplink and downlink directions independently. In this paper, a tutorial on resource allocation for OFDMA systems for both directions is presented under various resource allocation scenarios.
