Summary:Device-to-device (D2D) communication as an underlay to future cellular networks has been recently considered as an efficient cell offloading and capacity increasing solution. In this paper, we propose to use the D2D underlay as a carrier for automotive safety applications with very strict quality of service and reliability requirements. We propose a location dependent resource allocation scheme (LDRAS) for mobile D2D communications that fulfills the requirements of such services, while reducing the signaling overhead and guaranteeing a certain maximum interference level within the primary network and the D2D underlay, respectively. The former is ensured by applying persistent resource allocation to the vehicular D2D network. The latter is achieved with a spatial reuse scheme with fixed resource reservation, exploiting the localized nature of vehicle-to-vehicle communications. Initial simulation results, comparing the proposed LDRAS to a state-of-the-art radio resource management algorithm, are provided as a proof-of-concept and illustrate the benefits of our solution.
