User Interference

The fifth generation (5G) wireless systems are anticipated to meet unprecedented capacity and latency requirements. In order to resolve these challenges in 5G, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is considered as a promising technique due to its ability to enhance spectrum efficiency and user access. As opposed to conventional orthogonal multiple access (OMA) which relies on orthogonal resource sharing, NOMA has a potential of supporting a higher number of users by multiplexing different users in the same resource in a non-orthogonal manner. With advanced receiver techniques, such as successive interference cancellation (SIC), the intra-user interference can be minimized at the NOMA receiver. To date, there are comprehensive surveys on NOMA, which describe the integration of NOMA with different communication technologies and discuss different NOMA classifications. However, the existing literature is scarce in reviewing state-of-the-art applications of NOMA from the perspective of its application to cellular networks (CNs), device-to-device (D2D) communications, and wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Therefore, the purpose of this survey is to fill this gap in knowledge. Specifically, NOMA with its underlying concepts are elaborated in detail. In addition, detailed system model of different NOMA-based wireless networks is presented. Furthermore, irrespective of the underlying spatial topology of the considered NOMA-based wireless network, general analytical expressions are presented to characterize the network performance. Finally, some challenges related to NOMA design are highlighted and potential research directions are pointed out to address these issues.

Abstract Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is one of the promising radio access techniques for resource allocation improvement in the 5th generation of cellular networks. Compared to orthogonal multiple access techniques (OMA), NOMA offers extra benefits, including greater spectrum efficiency which is provided through multiplexing users in the transmission power domain while using the same spectrum resources non-orthogonally. Even though NOMA uses Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) to repeal the interference among users, user grouping has shown to have a substantial impact on its performance. This prformance improvement can appear in different parameters such as system capacity, rate, or the power consumption. In this paper, we propose a novel user grouping scheme for sum-rate maximization which increases the sum-rate up to 25 percent in comparison with two authenticated recent works. In addition to being matrix-based and having a polynomial time complexity, the proposed method is also able to cope with users experiencing different channel gains and powers in different sub-bands.

In this paper,  non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is designed and implemented for the fifth generation (5G) of multi-user wireless communication.  Field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is considered for the implementation of this technique for two users. NOMA is applied in downlink phase of the base-station (BS) by applying power allocation mechanism for far and near users, in which one signal contains the superposition of two scaled signals depending on the distance of each user from the BS.  We assume an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel for each user in the presence of the interference due to the non-orthogonality between the two users’ signals. Therefore, successive-interference cancellation (SIC) is exploited to remove the undesired signal of the other user. The outage probability and the bit-error rate performance are presented over different signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR). Furthermore, Monte-Carlo simulations via Matlab are utilized to verify the results obtained by FPGA, which show exact-close match.

In modern wireless communication scenarios, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) provides high throughput and spectral efficiency for fifth generation (5G) and beyond 5G systems. Traditional NOMA detectors are based on successive interference cancellation (SIC) techniques at both uplink and downlink NOMA transmissions. However, due to imperfect SIC, these detectors are not suitable for defense applications. In this paper, we investigate the 5G multiple-input multiple-output NOMA deep learning technique for defense applications and proposed a learning approach that investigates the communication system’s channel state information automatically and identifies the initial transmission sequences. With the use of the proposed deep neural network, the optimal solution is provided, and performance is much better than the traditional SIC-based NOMA detectors. Through simulations, the analytical outcomes are verified.

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is a candidate multiple access scheme for the fifth-generation (5G) cellular networks. In NOMA systems, all users operate at the same frequency and time, which poses a challenge in the decoding process at the receiver side. In this work, the two most popular receiver structures, successive interference cancellation (SIC) and parallel interference cancellation (PIC) receivers, for NOMA reverse channel are implemented on a graphics processing unit (GPU) and compared. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is considered. The high computational complexity of interference cancellation receivers undermines the potential deployment of NOMA systems. GPU acceleration, however, challenges this weakness, and our numerical results show speedups of about from 75–220-times as compared to a multi-thread implementation on a central processing unit (CPU). SIC and PIC multi-thread execution time on different platforms reveals the potential of GPU in wireless communications. Furthermore, the successful decoding rates of the SIC and PIC are evaluated and compared in terms of bit error rate.

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) techniques have emerged in the past years as a solution to approximate the throughput performance of wireless communications systems to their theoretical capacity region. We consider in this paper an optimization-based model for multicast device-to-device (MD2D) communications where the channels are not orthogonal and may be (partially or fully) shared among the transmitters in each cluster. This setting leads naturally to the introduction of NOMA transmitters and receivers who use successive interference cancellation (SIC) to separate the superposed signals. To analyze the role of NOMA in MD2D, its performance impact, potential performance gains and possible shortcomings, we formulate a model that includes SIC operations in the decoders, so that higher rates can be attained when several sources transmit on the same channel(s). We also investigate the energy efficiency of the network (global and max-min) through a dynamic power control algorithm and present a centralized and a semi-distributed solution to these optimization problems. Through numerical simulations, we show that NOMA is able to improve both the sum-rate and the max-min rate of a MD2D network even from a small degree of resource sharing. Furthermore, these gains also improve the global energy efficiency on the network, but not always the max-min energy efficiency of the devices.

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has been recently proposed as a technique to increase the network throughput and to support massive connectivity, which are major requirements in the fifth generation (5G) communication systems. The NOMA can be realized through two different approaches, namely, in (a) power-domain, and (b) code-domain. In the power-domain NOMA (PD-NOMA), multiple users are assigned different power levels – based on their individual channel quality information – over the same orthogonal resources. The functionality of PD-NOMA comprises of two main techniques, namely, superposition coding at the transmitter and successive interference cancellation (SIC) at the receiver. An efficient implementation of SIC would facilitate to remove interference across the users. The SIC is carried out at users with the best channel conditions and is performed in descending order of the channel. On the other hand, in the code-domain NOMA (CD-NOMA), multiplexing is carried out using low-density spreading sequences for each user, similar to the code division multiple access (CDMA) technology. In this article, we provide an introduction to NOMA and present the details on the working principle of NOMA systems. Later, we discuss the different types of NOMA schemes under PD- and CD-domains, and investigate the related applications in the context of 5G communication systems. Additionally, we discuss the integration of NOMA with other technologies related to 5G such as cognitive radio and massive MIMO, and discuss some future research challenges.

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has been proposed as a promising multiple access (MA) technique in order to meet the requirements for fifth generation (5G) communications and to enhance the performance in internet of things (IoT) networks by enabling massive connectivity, high throughput, and low latency. This paper investigates the bit error rate (BER) performance of two-user uplink power-domain NOMA with a successive interference cancellation (SIC) receiver and taking into account channel estimation errors. The analysis considers two scenarios: perfect (ideal) channel estimation and a channel with estimation errors for various modulations schemes, BPSK, QPSK, and 16-QAM. The simulation results show that, as expected, increasing of the modulation level increases the SIC receiver BER. For example, at a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 5 dB for perfect channel estimation and QPSK modulation, the user that is detected first has a BER of 0.005 compared to 0.14 for the user that is detected with the aid of the SIC receiver. Similarly, the BER of QPSK, assuming 0.25 channel estimation error of user 1, is equal to 0.06 at SNR = 15 dB compared to 0.017 for perfect estimation.

AbstractIn the next generation of mobile communication networks, unprecedented challenges are required to be met, such as much higher data rates and spectrum efficiency, lower latency, and massive connectivity. Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has recently been proposed as a promising technology to achieve much superior spectral efficiency compared to conventional orthogonal multiple access techniques employed in present communication systems. A salient feature of NOMA is its use of successive interference cancellation (SIC) to decode users’ information when multiple users are allowed to transmit in same time/frequency/code domain. In this paper, we aim to exploit an aspect of SIC, namely the availability of other users’ data to realize a cooperative NOMA system. EXtrinsic information transfer (EXIT) charts are utilized to examine the performance of proposed system in terms of user fairness while employing IRregular convolutional codes (IRCC)s. The EXIT chart using IRCC evaluates the convergence analysis for the proposed system. Further, to evaluate the system performances in cooperative NOMA system, we have derived the expressions for the achievable rates which are obtained independently and utilized them in evaluating the experimental data for the proposed NOMA model.

At present, the standardization of mobile communication technologies to lay the foundations of wireless networks 5G, there is a general view of the need to replace the fundamental OFDM technology at the expense of more efficient, which can better operate in 5G conditions. For this purpose, a number of new forms of modulation have been introduced. It should be noted that at the same time, these methods have a basic principle of OFDM technology. The main idea of OFDM technology is to divide the frequency selective channel into a number of narrowband sub-channels. In these subchannels or subcarriers, orthogonal narrowband signals are transmitted in parallel. Since each of these signals undergoes shallow fading, then a fairly simple scalar correction of the channel. The main methods of promising technologies UF-OFDM, FBMC, and GFDM are described, which are logical continuation of OFDMmodulation development. In many ways, FBMC has much in common with CP-OFDM and OFDM, which use a cyclic prefix as a security signal. GFDM is a flexible multi-carrier transmission method, which is largely similar to OFDM. UF-OFDM uses filtering to provide its unique characteristics. An analysis of the prospects for the development of MIMO standards is presented. It is shown that the MU-MIMO specification is one of the most significant technological improvements to MIMO. The MU-MIMO specification is the evelopment of MIMO technology and an attempt to solve the problem of the growing amount of data transmitted over wireless networks. Thanks to it, the entire bandwidth of the network can be effectively used, and users will be able to exchange data at a speed of gigabytes per second. It has been established that the system of antenna chains from four to four and three users is the most productive and effective. The essence of the method of reducing the interval of monitoring the carrier frequency of the synchronization system of the domodulator, based on the use of sliding FFT, which can be proposed in the implementation of the above signal modulation technologies.
