Wireless Powered Cooperative Relaying using NOMA with Imperfect CSI

The impact of imperfect channel state (CSI) information in an energy harvesting (EH) cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) network, consisting of a source, two users, and an EH relay is investigated in this paper. The relay is not equipped with a fixed power source and acts as a wireless powered node to help signal transmission to the users. Closed-form expressions for the outage probability of both users are derived under imperfect CSI for two different power allocation strategies namely fixed and dynamic power allocation. Monte Carlo simulations are used to numerically evaluate the effect of imperfect CSI. These results confirm the theoretical outage analysis and show that NOMA can outperform orthogonal multiple access even with imperfect CSI.Comment: 6 pages, 6 figures, accepted in IEEE GLOBECOM 2018 NOMA Worksho

Analysis of Multi-Cell Downlink Cooperation with a Constrained Spatial Model

Multi-cell cooperation (MCC) mitigates intercell interference and improves throughput at the cell edge. This paper considers a cooperative downlink, whereby cell-edge mobiles are served by multiple cooperative base stations. The cooperating base stations transmit identical signals over paths with non-identical path losses, and the receiving mobile performs diversity combining. The analysis in this paper is driven by a new expression for the conditional outage probability when signals arriving over different paths are combined in the presence of noise and interference, where the conditioning is with respect to the network topology and shadowing. The channel model accounts for path loss, shadowing, and Nakagami fading, and the Nakagami fading parameters do not need to be identical for all paths. To study performance over a wide class of network topologies, a random spatial model is adopted, and performance is found by statistically characterizing the rates provided on the downlinks. To model realistic networks, the model requires a minimum separation among base stations. Having adopted a realistic model and an accurate analysis, the paper proceeds to determine performance under several resource-allocation policies and provides insight regarding how the cell edge should be defined.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, IEEE Global Telecommun.

Performance Analysis of NOMA-based Cooperative Relaying in {\alpha} - {\mu} Fading Channels

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is widely recognized as a potential multiple access technology for efficient radio spectrum utilization in the fifth-generation (5G) wireless communications standard. In this paper, we study the average achievable rate and outage probability of a cooperative relaying system (CRS) based on NOMA (CRS-NOMA) over wireless links governed by the $\alpha$-$\mu$ generalized fading model; here $\alpha$ and $\mu$ designate the nonlinearity and clustering parameters, respectively, of each link. The average achievable rate is represented in closed-form using Meijer's G-function and the extended generalized bivariate Fox's H-function (EGBFHF), and the outage probability is represented using the lower incomplete Gamma function. Our results confirm that the CRS-NOMA outperforms the CRS with conventional orthogonal multiple access (CRS-OMA) in terms of spectral efficiency at high transmit signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). It is also evident from our results that with an increase in the value of the nonlinearity/clustering parameter, the SNR at which the CRS-NOMA outperforms its OMA based counterpart becomes higher. Furthermore, the asymptotic analysis of the outage probability reveals the dependency of the diversity order of each symbol in the CRS-NOMA system on the $\alpha$ and $\mu$ parameters of the fading links.Comment: 16 pages, 7 figures, 1 table, accepted in IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC) - 2019, Shangha

On secure system performance over SISO, MISO and MIMO-NOMA wireless networks equipped a multiple antenna based on TAS protocol

This study examined how to improve system performance by equipping multiple antennae at a base station (BS) and all terminal users/mobile devices instead of a single antenna as in previous studies. Experimental investigations based on three NOMA down-link models involved (1) a single-input-single-output (SISO) scenario in which a single antenna was equipped at a BS and for all users, (2) a multi-input-single-output (MISO) scenario in which multiple transmitter antennae were equipped at a BS and a single receiver antenna for all users and (3) a multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) scenario in which multiple transmitter antennae were equipped at a BS and multiple receiver antenna for all users. This study investigated and compared the outage probability (OP) and system throughput assuming all users were over Rayleigh fading channels. The individual scenarios also each had an eavesdropper. Secure system performance of the individual scenarios was therefore also investigated. In order to detect data from superimposed signals, successive interference cancellation (SIC) was deployed for users, taking into account perfect, imperfect and fully imperfect SICs. The results of analysis of users in these three scenarios were obtained in an approximate closed form by using the Gaussian-Chebyshev quadrature method. However, the clearly and accurately presented results obtained using Monte Carlo simulations prove and verify that the MIMO-NOMA scenario equipped with multiple antennae significantly improved system performance.Web of Science20201art. no. 1

Study on transmission over Nakagami-m fading channel for multiple access scheme without orthogonal signal

In this paper, a downlink performance in non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system is considered. With regard to different priority for two NOMA users, we exploit the closed-form expressions of outage probability over wireless fading channel following Nakagami-m fading. The fixed power allocation factor scheme is examined to reduce the complexity in computation regarding performance analysis. In our analysis, perfect successive interference cancellation (SIC) is applied in order to achieve perfect signal decoding operation. Simulation results show that the considered NOMA downlink scheme is affected by transmit SNR, power allocation factors, fading parameters
