In this paper, we consider a light fidelity (LiFi)-enabled bidirectional Internet of Things (IoT) communication system, where visible light and infrared light are used in the downlink and uplink, respectively. In order to improve the energy efficiency (EE) of the bidirectional LiFi-IoT system, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) with a quality-of-service (QoS)-guaranteed optimal power allocation (OPA) strategy is applied to maximize the EE of the system. We derive a closed-form OPA set based on the identification of the optimal decoding orders in both downlink and uplink channels, which can enable low-complexity power allocation. Moreover, we propose an adaptive channel and QoS-based user pairing approach by jointly considering users channel gains and QoS requirements. We further analyze the EE of the bidirectional LiFi-IoT system and the user outage probabilities (UOPs) of both downlink and uplink channels of the system. Extensive analytical and simulation results demonstrate the superiority of NOMA with OPA in comparison to orthogonal multiple access (OMA) and NOMA with typical channel-based power allocation strategies. It is also shown that the proposed adaptive channel and QoS-based user pairing approach greatly outperforms individual channel/QoS-based approaches, especially when users have diverse QoS requirements.

The combination of non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) and mobile edge computing (MEC) can significantly improve the spectrum efficiency beyond the fifth-generation network. In this paper, we mainly focus on energy-efficient resource allocation for a multi-user, multi-BS NOMA assisted MEC network with imperfect channel state information (CSI), in which each user can upload its tasks to multiple base stations (BSs) for remote executions. To minimize the energy consumption, we consider jointly optimizing the task assignment, power allocation and user association. As the main contribution, with imperfect CSI, the optimal closed-form expressions of task assignment and power allocation are analytically derived for the two-BS case. Specifically, the original formulated problem is nonconvex. We first transform the probabilistic problem into a non-probabilistic one. Subsequently, a bilevel programming method is proposed to derive the optimal solution. In addition, by incorporating the matching algorithm with the optimal task and power allocation, we propose a low complexity algorithm to efficiently optimize user association for the multi-user and multi-BS case. Simulations demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can yield much better performance than the conventional OMA scheme but also the identical results with lower complexity from the exhaustive search with the small number of BSs.
This article investigates the energy efficiency issue in non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA)-enhanced Internet-of-Things (IoT) networks, where a mobile unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is exploited as a flying base station to collect data from ground devices via the NOMA protocol. With the aim of maximizing network energy efficiency, we formulate a joint problem of UAV deployment, device scheduling and resource allocation. First, we formulate the joint device scheduling and spectrum allocation problem as a three-sided matching problem, and propose a novel low-complexity near-optimal algorithm. We also introduce the novel concept of `exploration into the matching game for further performance improvement. By algorithm analysis, we prove the convergence and stability of the final matching state. Second, in an effort to allocate proper transmit power to IoT devices, we adopt the Dinkelbachs algorithm to obtain the optimal power allocation solution. Furthermore, we provide a simple but effective approach based on disk covering problem to determine the optimal number and locations of UAVs stop points to ensure that all IoT devices can be fully covered by the UAV via line-of-sight (LoS) links for the sake of better channel condition. Numerical results unveil that: i) the proposed joint UAV deployment, device scheduling and resource allocation scheme achieves much higher EE compared to predefined stationary UAV deployment case and fixed power allocation scheme, with acceptable complexity; and ii) the UAV-aided IoT networks with NOMA greatly outperforms the OMA case in terms of number of accessed devices.
This paper studies a novel approach for successive interference cancellation (SIC) ordering and beamforming in a multiple antennas non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) network with multi-carrier multi-user setup. To this end, we formulate a joint beamforming design, subcarrier allocation, user association, and SIC ordering algorithm to maximize the worst-case energy efficiency (EE). The formulated problem is a non-convex mixed integer non-linear programming (MINLP) which is generally difficult to solve. To handle it, we first adopt the linearizion technique as well as relaxing the integer variables, and then we employ the Dinkelbach algorithm to convert it into a more mathematically tractable form. The adopted non-convex optimization problem is transformed into an equivalent rank-constrained semidefinite programming (SDP) and is solved by SDP relaxation and exploiting sequential fractional programming. Furthermore, to strike a balance between complexity and performance, a low complex approach based on alternative optimization is adopted. Numerical results unveil that the proposed SIC ordering method outperforms the conventional existing works addressed in the literature.
Combining intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is an effective solution to enhance communication coverage and energy efficiency. In this paper, we focus on an IRS-assisted NOMA network and propose an energy-efficient algorithm to yield a good tradeoff between the sum-rate maximization and total power consumption minimization. We aim to maximize the system energy efficiency by jointly optimizing the transmit beamforming at the BS and the reflecting beamforming at the IRS. Specifically, the transmit beamforming and the phases of the low-cost passive elements on the IRS are alternatively optimized until the convergence. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm in IRS-NOMA can yield superior performance compared with the conventional OMA-IRS and NOMA with a random phase IRS.
A major challenge that is currently faced in the design of applications for the Internet of Things (IoT) concerns with the optimal use of available energy resources given the battery lifetime of the IoT devices. The challenge is derived from the heterogeneity of the devices, in terms of their hardware and the provided functionalities (e.g data processing/communication). In this paper, we propose a novel method for (i) characterizing the parameters that influence energy consumption and (ii) validating the energy consumption of IoT devices against the systems energy-efficiency requirements (e.g. lifetime). Our approach is based on energy-aware models of the IoT applications design in the BIP (Behavior, Interaction, Priority) component framework. This allows for a detailed formal representation of the systems behavior and its subsequent validation, thus providing feedback for enhancements in the pre-deployment or pre-production stages. We illustrate our approach through a Building Management System, using well-known IoT devices running the Contiki OS that communicate by diverse IoT protocols (e.g. CoAP, MQTT). The results allow to derive tight bounds for the energy consumption in various device functionalities, as well as to validate lifetime requirements through Statistical Model Checking.
