Spectrum sharing has been recently proposed as a promising paradigm to improve the efficiency of resource usage in next generation mobile networks. In particular, non orthogonal spectrum sharing allows the operators to re-use the available frequencies at the cost of higher interference at the receivers. In this paper, we mathematically analyze the performance of this technique and how it is statistically related to the channel coefficients. Moreover, we compare different kinds of schedulers that exploit various aspects of non orthogonal spectrum sharing. Finally, the resulting system performance is assessed, first through an exact statistical framework and then by simulating the schedulers in an LTE scenario with the open-source network simulator ns3.

Abstract
Spectrum sharing has been recently proposed as a promising paradigm to improve the efficiency of resource usage in next generation mobile networks. In particular, non orthogonal spectrum sharing allows the operators to re-use the available frequencies at the cost of higher interference at the receivers. In this paper, we mathematically analyze the performance of this technique and how it is statistically related to the channel coefficients. Moreover, we compare different kinds of schedulers that exploit various aspects of non orthogonal spectrum sharing. Finally, the resulting system performance is assessed, first through an exact statistical framework and then by simulating the schedulers in an LTE scenario with the open-source network simulator ns3.Pubblicazioni consigliate
