Abstract Heterogeneous communication modes in 5G demand integrated device connections, resource availability, and high capacity for meeting user demands. The radio resource allocation and usage for massive users results in interference between the device-to-device (D2D) uplink channels. This issue is addressed using a Non-orthogonal Convex Optimization Problem (NCOP) that identifies the chances of self-interference cancellations. This technique classifies interference and non-interference allocations in the rate of uplink communications. The channel reassignment is addressed as an NCOP based on the available interference levels. The interference levels before and after allocation and reallocation are analyzed under convex optimization. The interference cancellation convergence is computed for both channels wherein the transfer switching is performed. The convergence rate is estimated using the interference level and the number of channels reassigned for the uplink devices. Hence, the self-interference cancellation relies on non-convex channel allocations across various switching in this case. This feature is revisited if the D2D channels exceed their capacity for communication. Therefore, the 5G communication features coexist with the D2D uplinks for interference cancellations to improve channel allocation. For the SNR = 45dBm, the proposed NCOP reduces 12.4% of channel reassignment by augmenting 9.24% of interference cancellation.
