Capacity-Achieving Iterative LMMSE Detection for MIMO-NOMA Systems
This paper considers a iterative Linear Minimum Mean Square Error (LMMSE)
detection for the uplink Multiuser Multiple-Input and Multiple-Output (MU-MIMO)
systems with Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA). The iterative LMMSE
detection greatly reduces the system computational complexity by departing the
overall processing into many low-complexity distributed calculations. However,
it is generally considered to be sub-optimal and achieves relatively poor
performance. In this paper, we firstly present the matching conditions and area
theorems for the iterative detection of the MIMO-NOMA systems. Based on the
proposed matching conditions and area theorems, the achievable rate region of
the iterative LMMSE detection is analysed. We prove that by properly design the
iterative LMMSE detection, it can achieve (i) the optimal sum capacity of
MU-MIMO systems, (ii) all the maximal extreme points in the capacity region of
MU-MIMO system, and (iii) the whole capacity region of two-user MIMO systems.Comment: 6pages, 5 figures, accepted by IEEE ICC 2016, 23-27 May 2016, Kuala

On the Performance Gain of NOMA over OMA in Uplink Communication Systems
In this paper, we investigate and reveal the ergodic sum-rate gain (ESG) of
non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) over orthogonal multiple access (OMA) in
uplink cellular communication systems. A base station equipped with a
single-antenna, with multiple antennas, and with massive antenna arrays is
considered both in single-cell and multi-cell deployments. In particular, in
single-antenna systems, we identify two types of gains brought about by NOMA:
1) a large-scale near-far gain arising from the distance discrepancy between
the base station and users; 2) a small-scale fading gain originating from the
multipath channel fading. Furthermore, we reveal that the large-scale near-far
gain increases with the normalized cell size, while the small-scale fading gain
is a constant, given by = 0.57721 nat/s/Hz, in Rayleigh fading
channels. When extending single-antenna NOMA to -antenna NOMA, we prove that
both the large-scale near-far gain and small-scale fading gain achieved by
single-antenna NOMA can be increased by a factor of for a large number of
users. Moreover, given a massive antenna array at the base station and
considering a fixed ratio between the number of antennas, , and the number
of users, , the ESG of NOMA over OMA increases linearly with both and
. We then further extend the analysis to a multi-cell scenario. Compared to
the single-cell case, the ESG in multi-cell systems degrades as NOMA faces more
severe inter-cell interference due to the non-orthogonal transmissions.
Besides, we unveil that a large cell size is always beneficial to the ergodic
sum-rate performance of NOMA in both single-cell and multi-cell systems.
Numerical results verify the accuracy of the analytical results derived and
confirm the insights revealed about the ESG of NOMA over OMA in different
scenarios.Comment: 51 pages, 7 figures, invited paper, submitted to IEEE Transactions on

Capacity-Achieving MIMO-NOMA: Iterative LMMSE Detection
This paper considers a low-complexity iterative Linear Minimum Mean Square
Error (LMMSE) multi-user detector for the Multiple-Input and Multiple-Output
system with Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (MIMO-NOMA), where multiple
single-antenna users simultaneously communicate with a multiple-antenna base
station (BS). While LMMSE being a linear detector has a low complexity, it has
suboptimal performance in multi-user detection scenario due to the mismatch
between LMMSE detection and multi-user decoding. Therefore, in this paper, we
provide the matching conditions between the detector and decoders for
MIMO-NOMA, which are then used to derive the achievable rate of the iterative
detection. We prove that a matched iterative LMMSE detector can achieve (i) the
optimal capacity of symmetric MIMO-NOMA with any number of users, (ii) the
optimal sum capacity of asymmetric MIMO-NOMA with any number of users, (iii)
all the maximal extreme points in the capacity region of asymmetric MIMO-NOMA
with any number of users, (iv) all points in the capacity region of two-user
and three-user asymmetric MIMO-NOMA systems. In addition, a kind of practical
low-complexity error-correcting multiuser code, called irregular
repeat-accumulate code, is designed to match the LMMSE detector. Numerical
results shows that the bit error rate performance of the proposed iterative
LMMSE detection outperforms the state-of-art methods and is within 0.8dB from
the associated capacity limit.Comment: Accepted by IEEE TSP, 16 pages, 9 figures. This is the first work
that proves the low-complexity iterative receiver (Parallel Interference
Cancellation) can achieve the capacity of multi-user MIMO systems. arXiv

Multiple Access Techniques for Next Generation Wireless: Recent Advances and Future Perspectives
The advances in multiple access techniques has been one of the key drivers in moving from one cellular generation to another. Starting from the first generation, several multiple access techniques have been explored in different generations and various emerging multiplexing/multiple access techniques are being investigated for the next generation of cellular networks. In this context, this paper first provides a detailed review on the existing Space Division Multiple Access (SDMA) related works. Subsequently, it highlights the main features and the drawbacks of various existing and emerging multiplexing/multiple access techniques. Finally, we propose a novel concept of clustered orthogonal signature division multiple access for the next generation of cellular networks. The proposed concept envisions to employ joint antenna coding in order to enhance the orthogonality of SDMA beams with the objective of enhancing the spectral efficiency of future cellular networks
Joint RSMA and IDMA-Based NOMA system for downlink Communication in 5G and Beyond Networks
Future communication networks may encounter various issues in order to facilitate heavy heterogeneous data traffic and large number of users, therefore more advanced multiple access (MA) schemes is required to meet the changing requirements. Recently, a promising physical-layer MA technique has been suggested for multi-antenna broadcast channels, namely Rate Splitting Multiple Access (RSMA). This new scheme has the ability to partially decode the interference and partially treat the remaining interference as noise which makes it to cope with wide range of user deployments and network loads. On the other hand, interleave division multiple access (IDMA) has already been recognized as a potential code domain NOMA (non-orthogonal multiple access) scheme, suitable for 5G and beyond communication network. Hence, in this paper, a new approach of multiple access scheme is proposed to get the grip on new challenges in future communication (6G). The proposed framework consists the joint processing of RSMA and IDMA (code domain NOMA), in which the transmitter involves an IDMA as encoder and allows rate splitting to split the message in two parts i.e. common part and private part, before the actual transmission. The mathematical modeling of proposed system is elaborated in the paper and for simulation purpose the downlink communication scenario has been considered where users faced diverse channel conditions. The weighted sum rate (WSR) performance is evaluated for the proposed scheme which validate the quality of service (QoS) of the joint RS-IDMA system
