Description
Summary:Enhancing performance of downlink MU systems is an attractive and important research for future wireless systems. The non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) method was proposed to improve the performance of MU systems. In order to further improve the outage probability (OP) and ergodic capacity (EC) of downlink NOMA MU systems, we propose the combination of precoding and NOMA methods, and then the OP and EC of MU systems with our novel method are derived in scenarios of perfect and imperfect successive interference cancellation (SIC) scheme. Moreover, the closed-form expression of OP and EC for both scenarios is theoretically derived and compared with Monte Carlo simulations. The results show that, the analysis method is accurate, and the proposed combining precoding and NOMA can further enhance the performance of MU systems in comparing with the original orthogonal multiple access method.
