Design and optimization of highly reliable cognitive non-orthogonal multiple access communication systems
摘要
In this paper, we consider a coexisting network of cellular transmission and device-to-device (D2D) communication, in which BS wants to communicate with far user, meanwhile, a D2D source desires to transmit information to a D2D destination. However, due to heavy shadowing or severe path loss, their direct links are not available. To cope with this problem, a relay is employed to assist the involved transmission. For such a relay-assisted spectrum sharing network, two transmission schemes are designed, i.e., multiple access broadcast NOMA (M-NOMA) scheme and time division broadcast NOMA (T-NOMA) scheme. For each scheme, we first perform power optimization to minimize the outage probability (OP) of D2D communication under the quality of service (QoS) constraint of cellular transmission. Based on the optimization results, we derive the OPs for both cellular and D2D signals. To gain more insights, the asymptotic OPs and the average throughput for both schemes are provided as well. On this basis, we further propose a more superior hybrid M/T-NOMA cognitive communication scheme, in which the system will adaptively select the one with higher system throughput between M-NOMA and T-NOMA as the final transmission scheme. Simulation results validate the accuracy of our analyses, and reveal the performance gain of our schemes over the benchmark schemes.
