Low Complexity WMMSE Power Allocation In NOMA-FD Systems
In this paper we study the problem of power and channel allocation with the
objective of maximizing the system sum-rate for multicarrier non-orthogonal
multiple access (NOMA) full duplex (FD) systems. Such an allocation problem is
non-convex and, thus, with the goal of designing a low complexity solution, we
propose a scheme based on the minimization of the weighted mean square error,
which achieves performance reasonably close to the optimum and allows to
clearly outperforms a conventional orthogonal multiple access approach.
Numerical results assess the effectiveness of our algorithm.Comment: 5 pages conference paper, 3 figures. Submitted on ICASSP 202
Two-Layered Superposition of Broadcast/Multicast and Unicast Signals in Multiuser OFDMA Systems
We study optimal delivery strategies of one common and independent
messages from a source to multiple users in wireless environments. In
particular, two-layered superposition of broadcast/multicast and unicast
signals is considered in a downlink multiuser OFDMA system. In the literature
and industry, the two-layer superposition is often considered as a pragmatic
approach to make a compromise between the simple but suboptimal orthogonal
multiplexing (OM) and the optimal but complex fully-layered non-orthogonal
multiplexing. In this work, we show that only two-layers are necessary to
achieve the maximum sum-rate when the common message has higher priority than
the individual unicast messages, and OM cannot be sum-rate optimal in
general. We develop an algorithm that finds the optimal power allocation over
the two-layers and across the OFDMA radio resources in static channels and a
class of fading channels. Two main use-cases are considered: i) Multicast and
unicast multiplexing when users with uplink capabilities request both
common and independent messages, and ii) broadcast and unicast multiplexing
when the common message targets receive-only devices and users with uplink
capabilities additionally request independent messages. Finally, we develop a
transceiver design for broadcast/multicast and unicast superposition
transmission based on LTE-A-Pro physical layer and show with numerical
evaluations in mobile environments with multipath propagation that the capacity
improvements can be translated into significant practical performance gains
compared to the orthogonal schemes in the 3GPP specifications. We also analyze
the impact of real channel estimation and show that significant gains in terms
of spectral efficiency or coverage area are still available even with
estimation errors and imperfect interference cancellation for the two-layered
superposition system
Uplink CoMP under a Constrained Backhaul and Imperfect Channel Knowledge
Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) is known to be a key technology for next
generation mobile communications systems, as it allows to overcome the burden
of inter-cell interference. Especially in the uplink, it is likely that
interference exploitation schemes will be used in the near future, as they can
be used with legacy terminals and require no or little changes in
standardization. Major drawbacks, however, are the extent of additional
backhaul infrastructure needed, and the sensitivity to imperfect channel
knowledge. This paper jointly addresses both issues in a new framework
incorporating a multitude of proposed theoretical uplink CoMP concepts, which
are then put into perspective with practical CoMP algorithms. This
comprehensive analysis provides new insight into the potential usage of uplink
CoMP in next generation wireless communications systems.Comment: Submitted to IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications in February
