This paper considers a resource allocation problem in device-to-device (D2D) communications sharing the same frequency spectrum. In particular, the cellular users (CUs) utilize non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) while D2D users (DUs) adopt the orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA). A multi-objective optimization problem (MOOP) is formulated, which jointly maximizes the sum rate of DUs and CUs in uplink communications while taking into account the maximum transmit power budget and minimum data rate requirement for DUs and CUs. This MOOP is handled by the weighted Tchebycheff method, which converts it into a single-objective optimization (SOOP). Then, the monotonic optimization approach is employed to solve this SOOP optimally. Numerical results unveil an interesting tradeoff between D2D and CUs.
