In this paper, we investigate the optimal beamforming design to achieve joint congestion control and energy-efficient resource allocation in cache-enabled sensor networks. The network of interest works in the time-slotted mode. The dynamic buffering queue for each node is introduced to reflect the degree of network congestion and service delay. Then, a time-averaged sum rate maximization problem is proposed under the constraints of queue stability, instantaneous power consumption, average power consumption, and the minimum quality of service requirements. By introducing the method of Lyapunov optimization, the importance of buffering queue backlogs and sum rate maximization can be traded off, then the original queue-aware and time-averaged optimization problem is transformed into a weighted sum rate maximization problem at each time slot. It can be further converted into a second-order cone-programming problem by successive convex approximation, which is convex and can be efficiently solved by off-the-shelf solvers. Numerical results validate that wireless caching can greatly relieve the network congestion by reducing the buffering backlogs, and show that the proposed scheme can trade off the average queue length and time-averaged sum rate by selecting different control parameters.

In large-array millimeter-wave (mmWave) systems, hybrid multi-user precoding is one of the most attractive research topics. This paper first presents a low-dimensional manifolds architecture for the analog precoder. An objective function is formulated to maximize the Energy Efficiency (EE) in consideration of the insertion loss for hybrid multi-user precoder. The optimal scheme is intractable to achieve, so that we present a user clustering hybrid precoding scheme. By modeling each user set as a manifold, we formulate the problem as clustering-oriented multi-manifolds learning. We discuss the effect of non-ideal factors on the EE performance. Through proper user clustering, the hybrid multi-user precoding is investigated for the sum-rate maximization problem by manifold quasi conjugate gradient methods. The high signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) is achieved and the computational complexity is reduced by avoiding the conventional schemes to deal with high-dimensional channel parameters. Performance evaluations show that the proposed scheme can obtain near-optimal sum-rate and considerably higher spectral efficiency than some existing solutions.

This paper investigates two resource allocation problems in cognitive relaying networks where both secondary network and primary network coexist in the same frequency band and adopt orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technology. The first one is the sum rate maximization problem of a secondary network under total power budget of a secondary network and tolerable interference constraint of a primary network. The second one is the sum rate maximization problem of a secondary network under separate power budgets of a secondary network and tolerable interference constraint of a primary network. These two optimization problems are completely different from those in traditional cooperative communication due to interference management constraint condition. A joint optimization algorithm is proposed, where power allocation and subcarrier pairing are decomposed into two subproblems with reasonable cost. The first one is a closed form solution of power allocation of the secondary network while managing the interference to a primary network under a constraint condition. The other is optimal subcarrier pairing at given power allocation. Simulation results reveal aspects of average signal to noise ratio (SNR), interference level, relay position, and power ratio on the sum rate of a secondary network.
