Energy-Efficient Non-Orthogonal Transmission under Reliability and Finite Blocklength Constraints
This paper investigates an energy-efficient non-orthogonal transmission
design problem for two downlink receivers that have strict reliability and
finite blocklength (latency) constraints. The Shannon capacity formula widely
used in traditional designs needs the assumption of infinite blocklength and
thus is no longer appropriate. We adopt the newly finite blocklength coding
capacity formula for explicitly specifying the trade-off between reliability
and code blocklength. However, conventional successive interference
cancellation (SIC) may become infeasible due to heterogeneous blocklengths. We
thus consider several scenarios with different channel conditions and
with/without SIC. By carefully examining the problem structure, we present in
closed-form the optimal power and code blocklength for energy-efficient
transmissions. Simulation results provide interesting insights into conditions
for which non-orthogonal transmission is more energy efficient than the
orthogonal transmission such as TDMA.Comment: accepted by IEEE GlobeCom workshop on URLLC, 201
