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

Downlink and Uplink Intelligent Reflecting Surface Aided Networks: NOMA and OMA

Intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs) are envisioned to provide reconfigurable wireless environments for future communication networks. In this paper, both downlink and uplink IRS-aided non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) and orthogonal multiple access (OMA) networks are studied, in which an IRS is deployed to enhance the coverage by assisting a cell-edge user device (UD) to communicate with the base station (BS). To characterize system performance, new channel statistics of the BS-IRS-UD link with Nakagami-$m$ fading are investigated. For each scenario, the closed-form expressions for the outage probability and ergodic rate are derived. To gain further insight, the diversity order and high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) slope for each scenario are obtained according to asymptotic approximations in the high-SNR regime. It is demonstrated that the diversity order is affected by the number of IRS reflecting elements and Nakagami fading parameters, but the high-SNR slope is not related to these parameters. Simulation results validate our analysis and reveal the superiority of the IRS over the full-duplex decode-and-forward relay.Comment: Accepted for publication in the IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communication

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

Physical Layer Security of Cooperative NOMA for IoT Networks under I/Q Imbalance

In this paper, we investigate the reliability and security of cooperative dual-hop non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) for internet-of-thing (IoT) networks, in which the transceivers consider a detrimental factor of in-phase and quadrature-phase imbalance (IQI). The communication between the source and destination is accomplished through a decode-and-forward (DF) relay in the presence of an eavesdropper. In order to characterize the performance of the considered system, exact analytical expressions for the outage probability (OP) and intercept probability (IP) are derived in closed-form. Furthermore, to better understanding the performance of the considered system, we further derive the asymptotic expressions of OP in the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime and IP at the high main eavesdropping ratio (MER) region. A large number of analysis and Monte Carlo simulation results show that the existence of IQI usually increases the corresponding OP and reduces the IP, which means that reduces the reliability of the system and improves the security. In addition, the provided results provide useful insights into the trade-off between reliability and security of secure cooperative communication systems
