Abstract
Adaptive orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technology is used in OFDM systems for broadband power line communications to effectively increase the communication rate. Existing research is mostly based on the single-layer network state for the resource allocation, and the required rate is often a static preset value. When there are significant differences in the signal-to-noise ratios of the sub-carriers, the system cannot adaptively adjust the required resources according to the quality-of-service (QoS) demand and the actual network, resulting in the waste of communication resources or the inability to meet some user communication needs. In this paper, a cross-layer resource allocation model is established for the system's cross-layer resource allocation problem through the data mapping among the application layer, data link layer, and physical layer. In the MAC layer, according to the quality of service (QoS) requirements of electric power multi-service, the data packet waiting delay and the packet loss are mapped to transmission rate proportionality constraints of real-time/non-real-time users through the utility function. A physical layer resource allocation model based on proportional constraints is constructed, and then an improved genetic algorithm is used for the resource allocation. Finally, through the simulation experiments in a typical power line channel environment, it is found that the proposed algorithm improves the total throughput by 4%~6% over the existing two power line carrier resource allocation algorithms under the multi-service cross-layer resource allocation, and its proportional fairness is better. The proposed algorithm is able to maximize the system capacity while ensuring the QoS requirements, effectively improving communication quality.
