In this paper, a backscatter cooperation (BC) scheme is proposed for non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) downlink transmission. The key idea is to enable one user to split and then backscatter part of its received signals to improve the reception at another user. To evaluate the performance of the proposed BC-NOMA scheme, three benchmark schemes are introduced. They are the non-cooperation (NC)-NOMA scheme, the conventional relaying (CR)-NOMA scheme, and the incremental relaying (IR)-NOMA scheme. For all these schemes, the analytical expressions of the minimum total power to avoid information outage are derived, based on which their respective outage performance, expected rates, and diversity-multiplexing trade-off (DMT) are investigated. Analytical results show that the proposed BC-NOMA scheme strictly outperforms the NC-NOMA scheme in terms of all the three metrics. Furthermore, theoretical analyses are validated via Monte-Carlo simulations. It is shown that unlike the CR-NOMA scheme and the IR-NOMA scheme, the proposed BC-NOMA scheme can enhance the transmission reliability without impairing the transmission rate, which makes backscattering an appealing solution to cooperative NOMA downlinks.
The feasibility of physical-layer-based security approaches for wireless communications in the presence of one or more eavesdroppers is hampered by channel conditions. In this paper, cooperation is investigated as an approach to overcome this problem
Ambient backscatter communications (AmBackComs) have been recognized as a spectrum- and energy-efficient technology for Internet of Things, as it allows passive backscatter devices (BDs) to modulate their information into the legacy signals, e.g., ce
Secure communication is a promising technology for wireless networks because it ensures secure transmission of information. In this paper, we investigate the joint subcarrier (SC) assignment and power allocation problem for non-orthogonal multiple ac
We investigate the reliability and security of the ambient backscatter (AmBC) non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems, where the source aims to communication with two NOMA users in the presence of an eavesdropper. We consider a more practical c
This paper proposes a tractable solution for integrating non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) into massive machine-type communications (mMTC) to increase the uplink connectivity. Multiple transmit power levels are provided at the user end to enable
