Optimal Joint Power and Subcarrier Allocation for MC-NOMA Systems
In this paper, we investigate the resource allocation algorithm design for
multicarrier non-orthogonal multiple access (MC-NOMA) systems. The proposed
algorithm is obtained from the solution of a non-convex optimization problem
for the maximization of the weighted system throughput. We employ monotonic
optimization to develop the optimal joint power and subcarrier allocation
policy. The optimal resource allocation policy serves as a performance
benchmark due to its high complexity. Furthermore, to strike a balance between
computational complexity and optimality, a suboptimal scheme with low
computational complexity is proposed. Our simulation results reveal that the
suboptimal algorithm achieves a close-to-optimal performance and MC-NOMA
employing the proposed resource allocation algorithm provides a substantial
system throughput improvement compared to conventional multicarrier orthogonal
multiple access (MC-OMA).Comment: Submitted to Globecom 201
Securing Downlink Massive MIMO-NOMA Networks with Artificial Noise
In this paper, we focus on securing the confidential information of massive
multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA)
networks by exploiting artificial noise (AN). An uplink training scheme is
first proposed with minimum mean squared error estimation at the base station.
Based on the estimated channel state information, the base station precodes the
confidential information and injects the AN. Following this, the ergodic
secrecy rate is derived for downlink transmission. An asymptotic secrecy
performance analysis is also carried out for a large number of transmit
antennas and high transmit power at the base station, respectively, to
highlight the effects of key parameters on the secrecy performance of the
considered system. Based on the derived ergodic secrecy rate, we propose the
joint power allocation of the uplink training phase and downlink transmission
phase to maximize the sum secrecy rates of the system. Besides, from the
perspective of security, another optimization algorithm is proposed to maximize
the energy efficiency. The results show that the combination of massive MIMO
technique and AN greatly benefits NOMA networks in term of the secrecy
performance. In addition, the effects of the uplink training phase and
clustering process on the secrecy performance are revealed. Besides, the
proposed optimization algorithms are compared with other baseline algorithms
through simulations, and their superiority is validated. Finally, it is shown
that the proposed system outperforms the conventional massive MIMO orthogonal
multiple access in terms of the secrecy performance
A Survey of Downlink Non-orthogonal Multiple Access for 5G Wireless Communication Networks
Accepted by ZTE CommunicationsAccepted by ZTE CommunicationsAccepted by ZTE CommunicationsAccepted by ZTE CommunicationsAccepted by ZTE CommunicationsNon-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has been recognized as a promising multiple access technique for the next generation cellular communication networks. In this paper, we first discuss a simple NOMA model with two users served by a single-carrier simultaneously to illustrate its basic principles. Then, a more general model with multicarrier serving an arbitrary number of users on each subcarrier is also discussed. An overview of existing works on performance analysis, resource allocation, and multiple-input multiple-output NOMA are summarized and discussed. Furthermore, we discuss the key features of NOMA and its potential research challenges
