Efficient resource allocation for M2M half duplex FDD (H-FDD) systems

Machine to machine (M2M) communications among machines without human intervention have attracted more and more prominence due to high market potential in the near future. In this article, we propose a heuristic algorithm of allocating weighted per-user data rates for half duplex frequency division duplexing (H-FDD), and show how much performance gain can be achieved for the H-FDD M2M communications.
