Today’s wireless networks allocate radio resources to users based on the orthogonal multiple access (OMA) principle. However, as the number of users increases, OMA based approaches may not meet the stringent emerging requirements including very high spectral efficiency, very low latency, and massive device connectivity. Nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) principle emerges as a solution to improve the spectral efficiency while allowing some degree of multiple access interference at receivers. In this tutorial style paper, we target providing a unified model for NOMA, including uplink and downlink transmissions, along with the extensions to multiple input multiple output and cooperative communication scenarios. Through numerical examples, we compare the performances of OMA and NOMA networks. Implementation aspects and open issues are also detailed.

MC-CDMA integrates the advantages of OFDM with those of CDMA, it has high spectral efficiency, robustness against multi-path propagation and multiple access flexibility. Due to the above mentioned merits, it has been considered as a candidate for future wireless. In recent years, lattice reduction technique is discussed in multiple input multiple output communication systems, and has been shown with its better performance. The purpose of this paper is to express a model for uplink MC-CDMA systems in matrix form and then to propose a lattice reduction aided multiuser detection, in order to ameliorate the affects of inter-carrier interference and multi access interference. The effectiveness of the proposed method is evaluated by the bit error rate performance.

Abstract Sparse code multiple access (SCMA) is one of the promising implementations of non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) methods. SCMA provides high spectral efficiency and a large number of network resources. We describe a communication system with SCMA, space-time block coding (STBC), multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technology, and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). The architecture of such systems, including algorithms of formation and processing of signals is considered. A method for adapting signals to the state of the spatial channel transmission based on information about the matrix of channel coefficients is proposed. The application of such adaptation allows to compensate the influence of the channel and to reduce the probability of bit errors. We consider the bit error rate (BER) performance of the communication system in different channel models and show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

This chapter introduces the adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) as a practical means of approaching the high spectral efficiency theoretically promised by multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. It investigates the AMC MIMO systems in a generic framework and gives a quantitative analysis of the multiplexing gain of these systems. The effects of imperfect channel state information (CSI) on the AMC MIMO systems are pointed out. In the context of imperfect CSI, a design of robust near-capacity AMC MIMO system is proposed and its good performance is verified by simulation results. The proposed adaptive system is compared with the non-adaptive MIMO system, which shows the adaptive system approaches the channel capacity closer.

Massive multiple-input multiple-output techniques have attracted wide attention as one of the key technologies of 5G. Pilot reuse based on the same pilot sequence is necessary among different users due to limited pilot resources. In this study, a pilot reuse mode based on continuous pilot reuse factors is proposed to pursue a flexible pilot reuse mode with high spectral efficiency (SE). In this mode, users in every cell are grouped, and different groups use different pilot reuse factors. Therefore, any overall pilot reuse factor is achieved to increase the flexibility of pilot reuse considerably. A theoretical analysis proves that the proposed pilot reuse based on continuous pilot reuse factors is superior to the traditional pilot reuse based on single pilot reuse factor to some extent in terms of SE. A new method to search the optimal pilot reuse based on continuous pilot reuse factors is also introduced. Simulation results demonstrate that, in most cases, the optimal pilot reuse mode based on continuous pilot reuse factors is better than the traditional mode. Such superiority still exists under a limited number of antennas.

Spatial modulation (SM) is a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system that achieves a MIMO high spectral efficiency while maintaining the transmitter computational complexity and requirements as low as those of the single-input systems. The complex quadrature spatial modulation (CQSM) builds on the QSM scheme and improves the spectral efficiency by transmitting two signal symbols at each channel use. In this paper, we propose two generalizations of CQSM, namely, generalized CQSM with unique combinations (GCQSM-UC) and with permuted combinations (GCQSM-PC). These two generalizations perform close to CQSM or outperform it, depending on the system parameters. Also, the proposed schemes require much less transmit antennas to achieve the same spectral efficiency of CQSM, for instance, assuming 16-QAM, GCQSM-PC, and GCQSM-UC require 10 and 15 transmit antennas, respectively, to achieve the same spectral of CQSM which is equipped with 32 antennas.

The goal of the study presented in this paper is to investigate the performance of a new subcarrier allocation strategy for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) multicellular networks which employ Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) architecture. For this reason, a hybrid system-link level simulator has been developed executing independent Monte Carlo (MC) simulations in parallel. Up to two tiers of cells around the central cell are taken into consideration and increased loading per cell. The derived results indicate that this strategy can provide up to 12% capacity gain for 16-QAM modulation and two tiers of cells around the central cell in a symmetric2×2MIMO configuration. This gain is derived when comparing the proposed strategy to the traditional approach of allocating subcarriers that maximize only the desired user’s signal.

<p>Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems are considered a promising solution to minimize multiuser interference (MUI) based on simple precoding techniques with a massive antenna array at a base station (BS). This paper presents a novel approach of beam division multiple access (BDMA) which BS transmit signals to multiusers at the same time via different beams based on hybrid beamforming and user-beam schedule. With the selection of users whose steering vectors are orthogonal to each other, interference between users is significantly improved. While, the efficiency spectrum of proposed scheme reaches to the performance of fully digital solutions, the multiuser interference is considerably reduced.</p>
