A Load Balancing Relay Algorithm (LBRA) was proposed to solve the unfair spectrum resource allocation in the traditional mobile MTC relay. In order to obtain reasonable use of spectrum resources, and a balanced MTC devices (MTCDs) distribution, spectrum resources are dynamically allocated by MTCDs regrouped on the MTCD to MTC gateway link. Moreover, the system outage probability and transmission capacity are derived when using LBRA. The numerical results show that the proposed algorithm has better performance in transmission capacity and outage probability than the traditional method. LBRA had an increase in transmission capacity of about 0.7dB, and an improvement in outage probability of about 0.8dB with a high MTCD density.
