Description
Summary:In this paper, an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) is considered for the mobile air interface. To reduce the reverse link overheads for CQI feedback, we consider an aggregated sub-channel structure, where a set of adjacent sub-carriers are tied up to a sub-channel to be used as a unit of user-multiplexing and the corresponding power/rate allocation. Modeling the SNR distribution over the bandwidth of a sub-channel as Rician, the channel quality of a sub-channel is summarized with the mean and variance of channel gain envelop divided by noise standard deviation. Then, we develop a generalized two step channel/resource allocation algorithm, which uses the two statistical measurements, and analyze the spectral efficiency of the OFDMA system in terms of average frequency utilization.
