D2D Assisted Cellular Networks in Licensed and Unlicensed Spectrum: Matching-Iteration-Based Joint User Access and Resource Allocation

Device-to-Device (D2D) communications, which enable direct communication between nearby user devices over the licensed spectrum, have been considered a key technique to improve spectral efficiency and system throughput in cellular networks (CNs). However, the limited spectrum resources cannot be suf...
