Abstract
En 中文
The ever-growing demands for data-hungry services make the multicast play an increasingly important role in service delivery. 3GPP has enabled multicast for cellular network, including the adoption of two distinct multicast modes, Multicast/Broadcast Single Frequency Network (MBSFN) and Single Cell Point to Multipoint (SC-PTM). However, the lack of flexible selection between different multicast modes limits the transmission capacity. In order to further increase system throughput, this article focuses on exploiting the complementarity between MBSFN mode and SC-PTM mode, namely selecting the appropriate multicast mode for each cell in the network. This approach benefits from the trade-off between the utilization of user diversity via SC-PTM and the extra SFN gain from MBSFN, which increases the system throughput from a perspective of enhancing configuration flexibility. By constructing the analytical model of the network comprising cells with different multicast modes, we formulate a multicast mode selection problem aiming to maximize system throughput. Then, the formulated mixed-integer nonlinear programming problem is converted to a Difference of Convex (DC) programming, which is solved by the proposed algorithm based on the concave-convex procedure. Considering potential massive scale networks and high selection frequency, alternative mode selection algorithms with lower complexity are also designed.
