The resource allocation and optimization scheme was studied in a coexistence scenario of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and cellular communication network.To improve spectrum efficiency of the system, UAV users could reuse the cellular spectrum resources to access the network through full duplex or half duplex device-to-device technique.Additionally, a joint access control, mode selection, power control and resource allocation optimization problem was formulated to maximize the overall throughput of the network while ensuring quality of service requirements for both UAV users and ground cellular users.Specifically, the phase 1 method in the convex optimization was adopted for access control and feasibility check, and then the convex and concave procedure (CCCP) iterative algorithm was used to solve the power control problem for feasible UAV user pairs.By using this local optimum value, the original optimization problem can be simplified into a weighted maximization problem.Finally, the Kuhn-Munkres (KM) algorithm was used to match the optimal channel resources and obtain the global optimal throughput value of the system.Numerical results show that the proposed scheme can significantly improve the performance of system.
