SCMA with Low Complexity Symmetric Codebook Design for Visible Light Communication
Sparse code multiple access (SCMA) is attracting significant research
interests currently, which is considered as a promising multiple access
technique for 5G systems. It serves as a good candidate for the future
communication network with massive nodes due to its capability of handling user
overloading. Introducing SCMA to visible light communication (VLC) can provide
another opportunity on design of transmission protocols for the communication
network with massive nodes due to the limited communication range of VLC, which
reduces the interference intensity. However, when applying SCMA in VLC systems,
we need to modify the SCMA codebook to accommodate the real and positive signal
requirement for VLC.We apply multidimensional constellation design methods to
SCMA codebook. To reduce the design complexity, we also propose a symmetric
codebook design. For all the proposed design approaches, the minimum Euclidean
distance aims to be maximized. Our symmetric codebook design can reduce design
and detection complexity simultaneously. Simulation results show that our
design implies fast convergence with respect to the number of iterations, and
outperforms the design that simply modifies the existing approaches to VLC
signal requirements
Turbo-like Iterative Multi-user Receiver Design for 5G Non-orthogonal Multiple Access
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NoMA) as an efficient way of radio resource
sharing has been identified as a promising technology in 5G to help improving
system capacity, user connectivity, and service latency in 5G communications.
This paper provides a brief overview of the progress of NoMA transceiver study
in 3GPP, with special focus on the design of turbo-like iterative multi-user
(MU) receivers. There are various types of MU receivers depending on the
combinations of MU detectors and interference cancellation (IC) schemes.
Link-level simulations show that expectation propagation algorithm (EPA) with
hybrid parallel interference cancellation (PIC) is a promising MU receiver,
which can achieve fast convergence and similar performance as message passing
algorithm (MPA) with much lower complexity.Comment: Accepted by IEEE 88th Vehicular Technology Conference (IEEE VTC-2018

Investigation on Evolving Single-Carrier NOMA into Multi-Carrier NOMA in 5G
© 2013 IEEE. Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is one promising technology, which provides high system capacity, low latency, and massive connectivity, to address several challenges in the fifth-generation wireless systems. In this paper, we first reveal that the NOMA techniques have evolved from single-carrier NOMA (SC-NOMA) into multi-carrier NOMA (MC-NOMA). Then, we comprehensively investigated on the basic principles, enabling schemes and evaluations of the two most promising MC-NOMA techniques, namely sparse code multiple access (SCMA) and pattern division multiple access (PDMA). Meanwhile, we consider that the research challenges of SCMA and PDMA might be addressed with the stimulation of the advanced and matured progress in SC-NOMA. Finally, yet importantly, we investigate the emerging applications, and point out the future research trends of the MC-NOMA techniques, which could be straightforwardly inspired by the various deployments of SC-NOMA
V2X Meets NOMA: Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access for 5G Enabled Vehicular Networks
Benefited from the widely deployed infrastructure, the LTE network has
recently been considered as a promising candidate to support the
vehicle-to-everything (V2X) services. However, with a massive number of devices
accessing the V2X network in the future, the conventional OFDM-based LTE
network faces the congestion issues due to its low efficiency of orthogonal
access, resulting in significant access delay and posing a great challenge
especially to safety-critical applications. The non-orthogonal multiple access
(NOMA) technique has been well recognized as an effective solution for the
future 5G cellular networks to provide broadband communications and massive
connectivity. In this article, we investigate the applicability of NOMA in
supporting cellular V2X services to achieve low latency and high reliability.
Starting with a basic V2X unicast system, a novel NOMA-based scheme is proposed
to tackle the technical hurdles in designing high spectral efficient scheduling
and resource allocation schemes in the ultra dense topology. We then extend it
to a more general V2X broadcasting system. Other NOMA-based extended V2X
applications and some open issues are also discussed.Comment: Accepted by IEEE Wireless Communications Magazin
