A Survey on Device-to-Device Communication in Cellular Networks
TLDR
This paper provides a taxonomy based on the D2D communicating spectrum and review the available literature extensively under the proposed taxonomy to provide new insights into the over-explored and under- Explored areas that lead to identify open research problems of D1D communications in cellular networks.Abstract:
Device-to-device (D2D) communications was initially proposed in cellular networks as a new paradigm for enhancing network performance. The emergence of new applications such as content distribution and location-aware advertisement introduced new user cases for D2D communications in cellular networks. The initial studies showed that D2D communications has advantages such as increased spectral efficiency and reduced communication delay. However, this communication mode introduces complications in terms of interference control overhead and protocols that are still open research problems. The feasibility of D2D communications in Long-Term Evolution Advanced is being studied by academia, industry, and standardization bodies. To date, there are more than 100 papers available on D2D communications in cellular networks, but there is no survey on this field. In this paper, we provide a taxonomy based on the D2D communicating spectrum and review the available literature extensively under the proposed taxonomy. Moreover, we provide new insights into the over-explored and under-explored areas that lead us to identify open research problems of D2D communications in cellular networks.read more

Spectrum allocation for multi-operator device-to-device communication
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose to allocate the multi-operator D2D communication over dedicated cellular spectral resources contributed from both operators, i.e., the operators make offers about the amount of spectrum to contribute using a sequential updating procedure until reaching consensus.

Opp-relay: Managing directionality and mobility issues of millimeter-wave via D2D communication
TL;DR: A lightweight relaying mechanism called Opp-Relay is presented that builds on the existing D2D features of the 3GPP standard to opportunistically discover an mm-Wave enabled relay and significantly reduces the complexity of relay discovery.

Dynamic Source Routing in Ad Hoc Wireless Networks
David B. Johnson,David A. Maltz +1 more
TL;DR: This paper presents a protocol for routing in ad hoc networks that uses dynamic source routing that adapts quickly to routing changes when host movement is frequent, yet requires little or no overhead during periods in which hosts move less frequently.

User cooperation diversity. Part I. System description
TL;DR: Results show that, even though the interuser channel is noisy, cooperation leads not only to an increase in capacity for both users but also to a more robust system, where users' achievable rates are less susceptible to channel variations.
