On the Outage Performance of Network NOMA (N-NOMA) Modeled by Poisson Line Cox Point Process

To improve the system throughput, this paper proposes a network non-orthogonal multiple access (N-NOMA) technique for the uplink coordinated multi-point transmission (CoMP). In the considered scenario, multiple base stations collaborate with each other to serve a single user, referred to as the CoMP user, which is the same as for conventional CoMP. However, unlike conventional CoMP, each base station in N-NOMA opportunistically serves an extra user, referred to as the NOMA user, while serving the CoMP user at the same bandwidth. The CoMP user is typically located far from the base stations, whereas users close to the base stations are scheduled as NOMA users. Hence, the channel conditions of the two kind of users are very distinctive, which facilitates the implementation of NOMA. Compared to the conventional orthogonal multiple access based CoMP scheme, where multiple base stations serve a single CoMP user only, the proposed N-NOMA scheme can support larger connectivity by serving the extra NOMA users, and improve the spectral efficiency by avoiding the CoMP user solely occupying the spectrum. A stochastic geometry approach is applied to model the considered N-NOMA scenario as a Poisson cluster process, based on which closed-form analytical expressions for outage probabilities and ergodic rates are obtained. Numerical results are presented to show the accuracy of the analytical results and also demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed N-NOMA scheme.

A User-Centric Cooperative Scheme for UAV Assisted Wireless Networks in Malfunction Areas

A promising application of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to the future communication networks is to address emergency communications. This paper considers such a scenario where a UAV is employed to a malfunction area (modeled as a circular disc) in which all ground base stations (BSs) break down. The ground BSs outside the malfunction area are modelled as a homogeneous Poisson point process (HPPP). Particularly, a user-centric cooperative scheme is proposed to serve the UEs in the malfunction area. According to the user equipment's (UE's) connections to the UAV and the nearest ground BS, the malfunction area is divided into three regions, namely the UAV region, the cooperation region and the nearest ground BS region, in which the UEs are served by the UAV only, both the UAV and the nearest ground BS, and the nearest ground BS, respectively. The region size of each type can be adjusted by a cooperation parameter $δ$. Through rigorous derivations, an expression for the coverage probability achieved by the UE in the malfunction area is obtained. In order to provide a fair comparison, the normalized spectral efficiency (NSE) which is defined by taking both system throughput and the number of serving BSs into consideration, is used as a criterion for the performance evaluation. Numerical results are presented to verify the accuracy of the analytical results and also to demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed scheme.

On the Performance of Network NOMA in Uplink CoMP Systems: A Stochastic Geometry Approach

To improve the system throughput, this paper proposes a network non-orthogonal multiple access (N-NOMA) technique for the uplink coordinated multi-point transmission (CoMP). In the considered scenario, multiple base stations collaborate with each other to serve a single user, referred to as the CoMP user, which is the same as for conventional CoMP. However, unlike conventional CoMP, each base station in N-NOMA opportunistically serves an extra user, referred to as the NOMA user, while serving the CoMP user at the same bandwidth. The CoMP user is typically located at the cell-edge, whereas users close to the base stations are scheduled as NOMA users. Hence, the channel conditions of the two kind of users are very distinctive, which facilitates the implementation of NOMA. Compared to the conventional orthogonal multiple access based CoMP scheme, where multiple base stations serve a single CoMP user only, the proposed N-NOMA scheme can support larger connectivity by serving the extra NOMA users, and improve the spectral efficiency by avoiding the CoMP user solely occupying the spectrum.

A Novel Network NOMA Scheme for Downlink Coordinated Three-Point Systems

In this paper, we propose a network non-orthogonal multiple access (N-NOMA) technique for the downlink coordinated multipoint (CoMP) communication scenario of a cellular network, with randomly deployed users. In the considered N-NOMA scheme, superposition coding (SC) is employed to serve cell-edge users as well as users close to base stations (BSs) simultaneously, and distributed analog beamforming by the BSs to meet the cell-edge user's quality of service (QoS) requirements. The combination of SC and distributed analog beamforming significantly complicates the expressions for the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) at the reveiver, which makes the performance analysis particularly challenging. However, by using rational approximations, insightful analytical results are obtained in order to characterize the outage performance of the considered N-NOMA scheme. Computer simulation results are provided to show the superior performance of the proposed scheme as well as to demonstrate the accuracy of the analytical results.
