Squeezing the most out of interference: An optimization framework for joint interference exploitation and avoidance
—There is a growing interest in exploiting interference (rather than avoiding it) to increase network throughput. In particular, the so-called successive interference cancellation (SIC) scheme appears very promising, due to its ability to enable concurrent receptions from multiple transmitters as well as interference rejection. Although SIC has been extensively studied as a physical layer technology, its research and advances in the context of multi-hop wireless network remain limited. In this paper, we try to answer the following fundamental questions. What are the limitations of SIC? How to overcome such limitations? How to optimize the interaction between SIC and interference avoidance? How to incorporate multiple layers (physical, link, and network) in an optimization framework? We find that SIC alone is not adequate to handle interference in a multi-hop wireless network, and advocate the use of joint SIC and interference avoidance. To optimize a joint scheme, we propose a cross...
