    ADMM-based Subcarrier Allocation and Power Control for Uplink OFDMA Channels

    No full text
    In this paper, the problem of subcarrier allocation and power control for uplink orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) channels is studied. Each user may have a different strategy of power control due to his/her own limits of battery, quality-of-service (QoS) requirement, and the amount of information to transmit. The problem is first formulated as a minimization problem, and the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is then introduced to solve the problem in a distributed manner. Necessary conditions of each subproblem are derived to obtain a deeper understanding in the structure of the solutions. Numerical results show that the algorithm converges fast and obtains a near-optimal solution within only a few iterations
