Recent achievement in self-interference cancellation algorithms enables potential application of full-duplex (FD) in 5G radio access systems. The exponential growth of data traffic in 5G can be supported by having more spectrum and higher spectral efficiency. FD communication promises to double the spectral efficiency by enabling simultaneous uplink and downlink transmissions in the same frequency band. Yet for cellular access network with FD base stations (BS) serving multiple users (UE), additional BS-to-BS and UE-to-UE interferences due to FD operation could diminish the performance gain if not tackled properly. In this article, we address the practical system design aspects to exploit FD gain at network scale. We propose efficient reference signal design, low-overhead channel state information feedback and signalling mechanisms to enable FD operation, and develop low-complexity power control and scheduling algorithms to effectively mitigate new interference introduced by FD operation. We extensively evaluate FD network-wide performance in various deployment scenarios and traffic environment with detailed LTE PHY/MAC modelling. We demonstrate that FD can achieve not only appreciable throughput gains (1.9x), but also significant transmission latency reduction~(5-8x) compared with the half-duplex system.

Theoretically, full-duplex (FD) communications can double the spectral-efficiency (SE) of a wireless link if the problem of self-interference (SI) is completely eliminated. Recent developments towards SI cancellation techniques have allowed to realiz
e the FD communications on low-power transceivers, such as small-cell (SC) base stations. Consequently, the FD technology is being considered as a key enabler of 5G and beyond networks. In the context of 5G, FD communications have been initially investigated in a single SC and then into multiple SC environments. Due to FD operations, a single SC faces residual SI and intra-cell co-channel interference (CCI), whereas multiple SCs face additional inter-cell CCI, which grows with the number of neighboring cells. The surge of interference in the multi-cell environment poses the question of the feasibility of FD communications. In this article, we first review the FD communications in single and multiple SC environments and then provide the state-of-the-art for the CCI mitigation techniques, as well as FD feasibility studies in a multi-cell environment. Further, through numerical simulations, the SE performance gain of the FD communications in ultra-dense massive multiple input multiple-output enabled millimeter wave SCs is presented. Finally, potential open research challenges of multi-cell FD communications are highlighted.
We consider a multi-carrier and densely deployed small cell network, where small cells are powered by renewable energy source and operate in a full-duplex mode. We formulate an energy and traffic aware resource allocation optimization problem, where
a joint design of the beamformers, power and sub-carrier allocation, and users scheduling is proposed. The problem minimizes the sum data buffer lengths of each user in the network by using the harvested energy. A practical uplink user rate-dependent decoding energy consumption is included in the total energy consumption at the small cell base stations. Hence, harvested energy is shared with both downlink and uplink users. Owing to the non-convexity of the problem, a faster convergence sub-optimal algorithm based on successive parametric convex approximation framework is proposed. The algorithm is implemented in a distributed fashion, by using the alternating direction method of multipliers, which offers not only the limited information exchange between the base stations, but also fast convergence. Numerical results advocate the redesigning of the resource allocation strategy when the energy at the base station is shared among the downlink and uplink transmissions.
The recent progress in the area of self-interference cancellation (SIC) design has enabled the development of full-duplex (FD) single and multiple antenna systems. In this paper, we propose a design for FD eNodeB (eNB) and user equipment (UE) for 5G
networks. The use of FD operation enables simultaneous in-band uplink and downlink operation and thereby cutting down the spectrum requirement by half. FD operation requires the same subcarrier allocation to UE in both uplink and downlink. Long Term Evolution LTE) uses orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) for downlink. To enable FD operation, we propose using single carrier frequency division multiple access SC-FDMA) for downlink along with the conventional method of using it for uplink. Taking advantage of channel reciprocity, singular value decomposition (SVD) based eamforming in the downlink allows multiple users (MU) to operate on same set of subcarriers. In uplink, frequency domain minimum mean square error (MMSE) equalizer along with successive interference cancellation with optimal ordering (SSIC-OO) algorithm is used to decouple signals of users operating in the same set of subcarriers. The work includes simulations showing efficient FD operation both at UE and eNB for downlink and uplink respectively.
We introduce the concept of using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as drone base stations for in-band Integrated Access and Backhaul (IB-IAB) scenarios for 5G networks. We first present a system model for forward link transmissions in an IB-IAB multi-
tier drone cellular network. We then investigate the key challenges of this scenario and propose a framework that utilizes the flying capabilities of the UAVs as the main degree of freedom to find the optimal precoder design for the backhaul links, user-base station association, UAV 3D hovering locations, and power allocations. We discuss how the proposed algorithm can be utilized to optimize the network performance in both large and small scales. Finally, we use an exhaustive search-based solution to demonstrate the performance gains that can be achieved from the presented algorithm in terms of the received signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) and overall network sum-rate.
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is an interesting concept to provide higher capacity for future wireless communications. In this article, we consider the feasibility and benefits of combining full-duplex operation with NOMA for modern communica
tion systems. Specifically, we provide a comprehensive overview on application of full-duplex NOMA in cellular networks, cooperative and cognitive radio networks, and characterize gains possible due to full-duplex operation. Accordingly, we discuss challenges, particularly the self-interference and inter-user interference and provide potential solutions to interference mitigation and quality-of-service provision based on beamforming, power control, and link scheduling. We further discuss future research challenges and interesting directions to pursue to bring full-duplex NOMA into maturity and use in practice.
