Best sum-throughput evaluation of cooperative downlink transmission nonorthogonal multiple access system
In cooperative simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) downlink situations, the current research investigates the total throughput of users in center and edge of cell. We focus on creating ways to solve these problems because the fair transmission rate of users located in cell edge and outage performance are significant hurdles at NOMA schemes. To enhance the functionality of cell-edge users, we examine a two-user NOMA scheme whereby the cell-center user functions as a SWIPT relay using power splitting (PS) with a multiple-input single-output. We calculated the probability of an outage for both center and edge cell users, using closed-form approximation formulas and evaluate the system efficacy. The usability of cell edge users is maximized by downlink transmission NOMA (CDT-NOMA) employing a SWIPT relay that employs PS. The suggested approach calculates the ideal value of the PS coefficient to optimize the sum throughput. Compared to the noncooperative and single-input single-output NOMA systems, the best SWIPT-NOMA system provides the cell-edge user with a significant throughput gain. Applying SWIPT-based relaying transmission has no impact on the framework’s overall throughput
Short-Packet Communications for MIMO NOMA Systems over Nakagami-m Fading: BLER and Minimum Blocklength Analysis
Recently, ultra-reliable and low-latency communications (URLLC) using
short-packets has been proposed to fulfill the stringent requirements regarding
reliability and latency of emerging applications in 5G and beyond networks. In
addition, multiple-input multiple-output non-orthogonal multiple access (MIMO
NOMA) is a potential candidate to improve the spectral efficiency, reliability,
latency, and connectivity of wireless systems. In this paper, we investigate
short-packet communications (SPC) in a multiuser downlink MIMO NOMA system over
Nakagami-m fading, and propose two antenna-user selection methods considering
two clusters of users having different priority levels. In contrast to the
widely-used long data-packet assumption, the SPC analysis requires the redesign
of the communication protocols and novel performance metrics. Given this
context, we analyze the SPC performance of MIMO NOMA systems using the average
block error rate (BLER) and minimum blocklength, instead of the conventional
metrics such as ergodic capacity and outage capacity. More specifically, to
characterize the system performance regarding SPC, asymptotic (in the high
signal-to-noise ratio regime) and approximate closed-form expressions of the
average BLER at the users are derived. Based on the asymptotic behavior of the
average BLER, an analysis of the diversity order, minimum blocklength, and
optimal power allocation is carried out. The achieved results show that MIMO
NOMA can serve multiple users simultaneously using a smaller blocklength
compared with MIMO OMA, thus demonstrating the benefits of MIMO NOMA for SPC in
minimizing the transmission latency. Furthermore, our results indicate that the
proposed methods not only improve the BLER performance but also guarantee full
diversity gains for the respective users.Comment: 12 pages, 8 figures. This paper has been submitted to an IEEE journal

Spectral, Energy and Computation Efficiency in Future 5G Wireless Networks
Wireless technology has revolutionized the way people communicate. From first generation, or 1G, in the 1980s to current, largely deployed 4G in the 2010s, we have witnessed not only a technological leap, but also the reformation of associated applications. It is expected that 5G will become commercially available in 2020. 5G is driven by ever-increasing demands for high mobile traffic, low transmission delay, and massive numbers of connected devices. Today, with the popularity of smart phones, intelligent appliances, autonomous cars, and tablets, communication demands are higher than ever, especially when it comes to low-cost and easy-access solutions.
Existing communication architecture cannot fulfill 5G’s needs. For example, 5G requires connection speeds up to 1,000 times faster than current technology can provide. Also, from transmitter side to receiver side, 5G delays should be less than 1ms, while 4G targets a 5ms delay speed. To meet these requirements, 5G will apply several disruptive techniques. We focus on two of them: new radio and new scheme. As for the former, we study the non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) and as for the latter, we use mobile edge computing (MEC).
Traditional communication systems allow users to communicate alternatively, which clearly avoids inter-user interference, but also caps the connection speed. NOMA, on the other hand, allows multiple users to transmit simultaneously. While NOMA will inevitably cause excessive interference, we prove such interference can be mitigated by an advanced receiver side technique. NOMA has existed on the research frontier since 2013. Since that time, both academics and industry professionals have extensively studied its performance. In this dissertation, our contribution is to incorporate NOMA with several potential schemes, such as relay, IoT, and cognitive radio networks. Furthermore, we reviewed various limitations on NOMA and proposed a more practical model.
In the second part, MEC is considered. MEC is a transformation from the previous cloud computing system. In particular, MEC leverages powerful devices nearby and instead of sending information to distant cloud servers, the transmission occurs in closer range, which can effectively reduce communication delay. In this work, we have proposed a new evaluation metric for MEC which can more effectively leverage the trade-off between the amount of computation and the energy consumed thereby.
A practical communication system for wearable devices is proposed in the last part, which combines all the techniques discussed above. The challenges for wearable communication are inherent in its diverse needs, as some devices may require low speed but high reliability (factory sensors), while others may need low delay (medical devices). We have addressed these challenges and validated our findings through simulations
Optimization for Maximizing Sum Secrecy Rate in SWIPT-enabled NOMA Systems
OAPA In this paper, we study secrecy simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) in downlink nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems comprising a base station (BS), multiple information receivers (IRs), and multiple energy receivers (ERs) that have potential to wiretap the IRs. The goal of this paper is to maximize the sum secrecy rate (SSR) of the system subject to the individual IR’s minimum data rate requirement and the individual ER’s minimum harvested energy requirement. The corresponding problem involves resource allocation via max-min function, which is non-convex and difficult to solve directly. In order to tackle this, we first transform the original non-convex problem to a sequence of convex subproblems which can be solved simultaneously. Hence, a closedform solution of the optimal power allocation policy is derived based on the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions. Numerical results validate the theoretical findings and demonstrate that significant performance gain over the orthogonal multiple access (OMA) scheme in terms of SSR can be achieved by the proposed algorithm in a SWIPT-enabled NOMA system
On the optimal user grouping in NOMA system technology
This paper provides a state-of-art analysis of the most relevant studies on optimal user-aggregation strategies for non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technology. The main ideas behind are i) to highlight how, in addition to the adoption of an optimal power allocation scheme, an optimal user-aggregation strategy represents an important key factor for improving NOMA system performance, and ii) to provide an exhaustive survey of the most relevant studies which can serve as useful starting point for the definition of new channel state-aware user-aggregation strategies for NOMA systems which, at the time of writing, represents a research field that still remains to be investigated more in depth. A detailed and complete analysis, which permits to point out the need to guarantee a certain relationship between users’ channel gain, is provided for each cited work
