Space-time coding scheme for the paired weak user in MIMO-NOMA systems by Mingyan GONG, Zhen YANG

“…In view of the paired weak user’s poor outage performance in multiple-input multiple-output non-orthogonal multiple access (MIMO-NOMA) systems,Alamouti code was adopted to encode for the weak user in order to improve its outage performance by means of diversity,and the closed-form expression of the strong user’s ergodic capacity as well as the boundary-form expressions of the weak user’s ergodic capacity and outage probability was derived in the proposed model.Moreover,a power allocation algorithm for optimizing the system’s throughput was proposed.Finally,the numerical results show the accuracy of the derived expressions,the efficacy of the proposed algorithm,and that the weak user’s outage performance in the proposed coding scheme is far superior to that in the current coding scheme only adopting vertical Bell lab layered space-time (V-BLAST) code.…”
