Performance Analysis of SSK-NOMA
In this paper, we consider the combination between two promising techniques:
space-shift keying (SSK) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) for future
radio access networks. We analyze the performance of SSK-NOMA networks and
provide a comprehensive analytical framework of SSK-NOMA regarding bit error
probability (BEP), ergodic capacity and outage probability. It is worth
pointing out all analysis also stand for conventional SIMO-NOMA networks. We
derive closed-form exact average BEP (ABEP) expressions when the number of
users in a resource block is equal to i.e., . Nevertheless, we analyze the
ABEP of users when the number of users is more than i.e., , and derive
bit-error-rate (BER) union bound since the error propagation due to iterative
successive interference canceler (SIC) makes the exact analysis intractable.
Then, we analyze the achievable rate of users and derive exact ergodic capacity
of the users so the ergodic sum rate of the system in closed-forms. Moreover,
we provide the average outage probability of the users exactly in the
closed-form. All derived expressions are validated via Monte Carlo simulations
and it is proved that SSK-NOMA outperforms conventional NOMA networks in terms
of all performance metrics (i.e., BER, sum rate, outage). Finally, the effect
of the power allocation (PA) on the performance of SSK-NOMA networks is
investigated and the optimum PA is discussed under BER and outage constraints
Performance analysis of spatial modulation aided NOMA with full-duplex relay
A spatial modulation aided non-orthogonal multiple access with full-duplex relay (SM-NOMA-FDR) scheme is proposed for the coordinated direct and relay transmission in this paper. Specifically, the signal of the near user is mapped to an M-ary modulated symbol and the signal of the far user is mapped to an SM symbol. The base station first transmits signals to the near user and relay via SM-NOMA, and then the relay decodes and retransmits the signal of the far user. An SM-assisted FDR is used in this scheme to improve the spectral efficiency while reducing energy consumption and making full use of the antenna resources at the relay, since SM only activates one antenna in each transmission. We derive the ergodic capacity and bit error rate of the proposed scheme over independent Rayleigh fading channels. Numerical results validate the accuracy of the theoretical analysis and show the superior performance of the proposed SM-NOMA-FDR scheme
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
Cache-Aided Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access for 5G-Enabled Vehicular Networks
The increasing demand for rich multimedia services and the emergence of the
Internet-of-Things (IoT) pose challenging requirements for the next generation
vehicular networks. Such challenges are largely related to high spectral
efficiency and low latency requirements in the context of massive content
delivery and increased connectivity. In this respect, caching and
non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) paradigms have been recently proposed as
potential solutions to effectively address some of these key challenges. In the
present contribution, we introduce cache-aided NOMA as an enabling technology
for vehicular networks. In this context, we first consider the full file
caching case, where each vehicle caches and requests entire files using the
NOMA principle. Without loss of generality, we consider a two-user vehicular
network communication scenario under double Nakagami fading conditions and
propose an optimum power allocation policy. To this end, an optimization
problem that maximizes the overall probability of successful decoding of files
at each vehicle is formulated and solved. Furthermore, we consider the case of
split file caching, where each file is divided into two parts. A joint power
allocation optimization problem is formulated, where power allocation across
vehicles and cached split files is investigated. The offered analytic results
are corroborated by extensive results from computer simulations and interesting
insights are developed. Indicatively, it is shown that the proposed
caching-aided NOMA outperforms the conventional NOMA technique.Comment: Accepted for publication in IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technolog
