Joint alpha-fairness based DSM and user encoding ordering for zero-forcing nonlinear precoding in G.Fast downstream transmission (poster)

© 2017 IEEE. In the G.fast frequency range with strong levels of crosstalk, nonlinear precoding (NLP) is proposed as a near-optimal technique for crosstalk precompensation in downstream transmission. While existing methods for multi-tone NLP user encoding ordering (UEO) are rather heuristic in how they approach fairness and suffer from substantial suboptimality, we develop a novel algorithm for joint dynamic spectrum management (DSM) and UEO that enforces a generalized alpha-fairness policy. Since finding the optimal UEO is a combinatorial optimization problem with excessive computational complexity, the proposed algorithm uses a low-complexity iterative method which provides near-optimal approximate solutions. Simulations demonstrate that the novel algorithm achieves a trade-off between fairness and performance that outperforms current UEO methods.
