The optimal subcarrier, bit and power alloca- tion problems based on discrete adaptive modula- tion and coding scheme have been previously formulated for relay-enhanced networks, and have been reformulated into and solved by integer programming in optimization theory. If the system still has a surplus of subcarriers after resource allocation, we carry out Band- width Exchange （BE） to enable more subcar- riers to participate in transmission to save en- ergy. In addition, as the relay selection scheme is closely linked with heuristic energy saving resource allocation, a relay selection scheme is proposed. Simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm consumes less energy when transmitting the same number of bits than greedy energy saving schemes, although its spectrum efficiency is worse.展开更多
