Abstract
Device-to-device (D2D) communications utilising licensed spectrum have been considered as a promising technology to improve cellular network spectral efficiency and offload local traffic from cellular base stations (BSs). In this paper, we develop Iunius: a peer-to-peer (P2P) system based on harvesting data in a community utilising multi-hop D2D communications. The Iunius system optimises D2D communications for P2P local file sharing, improves user experience, and offloads traffic from the BSs. The Iunius system features cross-layer integration of: 1) a wireless P2P protocol based on the Bittorrent protocol in the application layer; 2) a simple centralised routing mechanism for multi-hop D2D communications; 3) an interference cancellation technique for conventional cellular (CC) uplink communications; and 4) a radio resource management scheme to mitigate the interference between CC and D2D communications that share the cellular uplink radio resources while maximising the throughput of D2D communications. Simulation results show that the proposed Iunius system can increase the cellular spectral efficiency, reduce the traffic load of BSs, and improve the data rate and energy saving for mobile users.
