A Utility Proportional Fairness Resource Allocation in Spectrally   Radar-Coexistent Cellular Networks
  Spectrum sharing is an elegant solution to addressing the scarcity of the bandwidth for wireless communications systems. This research studies the feasibility of sharing the spectrum between sectorized cellular systems and stationary radars interfering with certain sectors of the communications infrastructure. It also explores allocating optimal resources to mobile devices in order to provide with the quality of service for all running applications whilst growing the communications network spectrally coexistent with the radar systems. The rate allocation problem is formulated as two convex optimizations, where the radar-interfering sector assignments are extracted from the portion of the spectrum non-overlapping with the radar operating frequency. Such a double-stage resource allocation procedure inherits the fairness into the rate allocation scheme by first assigning the spectrally radar-overlapping resources.
