Poster: Efficient cluster-based resource allocation for co-existing vehicle and cellular users

Research activities in the Vehicle-to-Everything domain have gained momentum in the recent years. A strive for “intelligent” cars, at certain stage probably even entirely autonomous, has triggered advanced studies — in both academia and industry. One of the significant issues to be addressed is how to efficiently share the available radio resources among various type of eligible users: legacy cellular and those emerging vehicle-type UEs. This paper proposes an enhanced algorithm for ensuring a robust co-existence of the aforementioned system users. This underlay Radio Resource Management (RRM) algorithm attempts to mitigate the interferences and ensure the different Quality of Service (QoS) requirements of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) applications. Initial simulation results, comparing the proposed algorithm to the two selected State of the Art algorithms, are provided as a proof-of-concept.
