Uplink cooperative diversity using power‐domain nonorthogonal multiple access

Abstract

In this paper, an uplink scheme that exploits cooperative diversity using power domain nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA), termed UCD-NOMA, with successive interference cancelation receivers is proposed. A two-user case is considered, where both the NOMA users can communicate with the base station directly and indirectly via a half-duplex decode-and-forward relay. Under perfect and imperfect successive interference cancelation assumptions, the ergodic sum capacity, outage probability, and outage sum capacity of the considered protocol are analyzed over the Rayleigh fading channel. As a protocol with which to compare the proposed UCD-NOMA protocol, an uplink cooperative network using a conventional multiple access technique (termed UCD-OMA) is also considered and analyzed. The performance excellence of UCD-NOMA as compared to UCD-OMA is clarified through simulations and theoretical analyses.Trans Emerging Tel Tech. 2019;30:e3678.wileyonlinelibrary.com/journal/ett

Exploiting Cooperative Downlink NOMA in D2D Communications

“…Thus, their data exchange relies on the relay node R. Further, to facilitate D2D bidirectional communications, the source nodes S 1 and S 2 communicate with each other by exchanging D2D messages. We have also assumed that channel state information (CSI) is perfectly known to the receivers and is in line with previous works such as [33,34]. The nodes are assumed to be equipped with a single antenna and operate in the half-duplex mode.…”

On the impact of IQI on cooperative NOMA with direct links in the presence of imperfect CSI

“…The ergodic capacity and OP for threshold-based selective CNOMA have been analyzed to provide a reliable alternative for traditional CNOMA networks [15]. The authors of [16] investigate the ergodic sum capacity and OP of the uplink CNOMA over the Rayleigh fading channel. An FD CNOMA-based coordinated direct and relay transmission has been analyzed in terms of the OP and ergodic rate under the effect of the residual interference generated due to the ISIC [17].…”

“…As mentioned above, the CNOMA has been analyzed in terms of the OP, ergodic capacity in the two NOMA schemes with and without the direct links [4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17]. All these works are considered the ideal case, so this is not practical.…”
