Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is envisioned to be one of the most beneficial technologies for next generation wireless networks due to its enhanced performance compared to other conventional radio access techniques. Although the principle of NOMA allows multiple users to use the same frequency resource, due to decoding complication, information of users in practical systems cannot be decoded successfully if many of them use the same channel. Consequently, assigned spectrum of a system needs to be split into multiple subchannels in order to multiplex that among many users. Uplink resource allocation for such systems is more complicated compared to the downlink ones due to the individual users power constraints and discrete nature of subchannel assignment. In this paper, we propose an uplink subchannel and power allocation scheme for such systems. Due to the NP-hard and non-convex nature of the problem, the complete solution, that optimizes both subchannel assignment and power allocation jointly, is intractable. Consequently, we solve the problem in two steps. First, based on the assumption that the maximal power level of a user is subdivided equally among its allocated subchannels, we apply many-to-many matching model to solve the subchannel-user mapping problem. Then, in order to enhance the performance of the system further, we apply iterative water-filling and geometric programming two power allocation techniques to allocate power in each allocated subchannel-user slot optimally. Extensive simulation has been conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. The results demonstrate that the proposed scheme always outperforms all existing works in this context under all possible scenarios.

The mobile edge computing framework offers the opportunity to reduce the energy that devices must expend to complete computational tasks. The extent of that energy reduction depends on the nature of the tasks, and on the choice of the multiple access scheme. In this paper, we first address the uplink communication resource allocation for offloading systems that exploit the full capabilities of the multiple access channel (FullMA). For indivisible tasks we provide a closed-form optimal solution of the energy minimization problem when a given set of users with different latency constraints are offloading, and a tailored greedy search algorithm for finding a good set of offloading users. For divisible tasks we develop a low-complexity algorithm to find a stationary solution. To highlight the impact of the choice of multiple access scheme, we also consider the TDMA scheme, which, in general, cannot exploit the full capabilities of the channel, and we develop low-complexity optimal resource allocation algorithms for indivisible and divisible tasks under that scheme. The energy reduction facilitated by FullMA is illustrated in our numerical experiments. Further, those results show that the proposed algorithms outperform existing algorithms in terms of energy consumption and computational cost.
Despite numerous advantages, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technique can bring additional interference for the neighboring ultra-dense networks if the power consumption of the system is not properly optimized. While targeting on the green communication concept, in this paper, we propose an energy-efficient downlink resource allocation scheme for a NOMA-equipped cellular network. The objective of this work is to allocate subchannels and power of the base station among the users so that the overall energy efficiency is maximized. Since this problem is NP-hard, we attempt to find an elegant solution with reasonable complexity that provides good performance for some realistic applications. To this end, we decompose the problem into a subchannel allocation subproblem followed by a power loading subproblem that allocates power to each users data stream on each of its allocated subchannels. We first employ a many-to-many matching model under the assumption of uniform power loading in order to obtain the solution of the first subproblem with reasonable performance. Once the the subchannel-user mapping information is known from the first solution, we propose a geometric programming (GP)-based power loading scheme upon approximating the energy efficiency of the system by a ratio of two posynomials. The techniques adopted for these subproblems better exploit the available multi-user diversity compared to the techniques used in an earlier work. Having observed the computational overhead of the GP-based power loading scheme, we also propose a suboptimal computationally-efficient algorithm for the power loading subproblem with a polynomial time complexity that provides reasonably good performance. Extensive simulation has been conducted to verify that our proposed solution schemes always outperform the existing work while consuming much less power at the base station.
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is one of the key techniques to address the high spectral efficiency and massive connectivity requirements for the fifth generation (5G) wireless system. To efficiently realize NOMA, we propose a joint design framework combining the polar coding and the NOMA transmission, which deeply mines the generalized polarization effect among the users. In this polar coded NOMA (PC-NOMA) framework, the original NOMA channel is decomposed into multiple bit polarized channels by using a three-stage channel transform, that is, user$to$signal$to$bit partitions. Specifically, for the first-stage channel transform, we design two schemes, namely sequential user partition (SUP) and parallel user partition (PUP). For the SUP, a joint successive cancellation detecting and decoding scheme is developed, and a search algorithm is proposed to schedule the NOMA detecting order which improves the system performance by enhanced polarization among the user synthesized channels. The worst-goes-first idea is employed in the scheduling strategy, and its theoretic performance is analyzed by using the polarization principle. For the PUP, a corresponding parallel detecting scheme is exploited to reduce the latency. The block error ratio performances over the additive white Gaussian noise channel and the Rayleigh fading channel indicate that the proposed PC-NOMA obviously outperforms the state-of-the-art turbo coded NOMA scheme due to the advantages of joint design between the polar coding and NOMA.
This paper proposes a new design of non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) under secrecy considerations. We focus on a NOMA system where a transmitter sends confidential messages to multiple users in the presence of an external eavesdropper. The optimal designs of decoding order, transmission rates, and power allocated to each user are investigated. Considering the practical passive eavesdropping scenario where the instantaneous channel state of the eavesdropper is unknown, we adopt the secrecy outage probability as the secrecy metric. We first consider the problem of minimizing the transmit power subject to the secrecy outage and quality of service constraints, and derive the closed-form solution to this problem. We then explore the problem of maximizing the minimum confidential information rate among users subject to the secrecy outage and transmit power constraints, and provide an iterative algorithm to solve this problem. We find that the secrecy outage constraint in the studied problems does not change the optimal decoding order for NOMA, and one should increase the power allocated to the user whose channel is relatively bad when the secrecy constraint becomes more stringent. Finally, we show the advantage of NOMA over orthogonal multiple access in the studied problems both analytically and numerically.
In this paper, we investigate the combination of two key enabling technologies for the fifth generation (5G) wireless mobile communication, namely millimeter-wave (mmWave) communications and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA). In particular, we consider a typical 2-user uplink mmWave-NOMA system, where the base station (BS) equips an analog beamforming structure with a single RF chain and serves 2 NOMA users. An optimization problem is formulated to maximize the achievable sum rate of the 2 users while ensuring a minimal rate constraint for each user. The problem turns to be a joint power control and beamforming problem, i.e., we need to find the beamforming vectors to steer to the two users simultaneously subject to an analog beamforming structure, and meanwhile control appropriate power on them. As direct search for the optimal solution of the non-convex problem is too complicated, we propose to decompose the original problem into two sub-problems that are relatively easy to solve: one is a power control and beam gain allocation problem, and the other is an analog beamforming problem under a constant-modulus constraint. The rational of the proposed solution is verified by extensive simulations, and the performance evaluation results show that the proposed sub-optimal solution achieve a close-to-bound uplink sum-rate performance.
