Next-generation directional mmWave MAC time-spatial resource allocation

This paper will design a resource allocation algorithm, mainly on downlink transmission by Base Station (BS) to User Equipments (UEs) implemented using directional antenna. The resource allocation is accomplished by Pair-Wisely Bottom-Up (PWBU) approach, targeting a time-efficient allocation based on SINR feedbacks. We utilize adaptive smart antennas capable of simultaneous transmission toward different target device ends. The goal of allocation is to determine which UEs to serve in each time-slots. At the end of this paper, we will evaluate performance of PWBU heuristic allocation. The designed algorithm will achieve time-efficient and sub-optimal resource allocation compared to the results of exhaustive optimization.
