Abstract To address the problems of network congestion and spectrum resources shortage in multi-user large-scale scenarios, this paper proposes a twice random access OFDMA-NOMA-RA protocol combining the advantages of orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA). The idea of this protocol is that OFMDA is used to divide the entire frequency field into multiple orthogonal resource units (RUs), and NOMA is used on each RU to enable more users to access the channel and improve spectrum efficiency. Based on the protocol designed in this paper, in the case of imperfect successive interference… More >

Abstract Hardware impairments (HI) are always present in low-cost wireless devices. This paper investigates the outage behaviors of intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) assisted non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) networks by taking into account the impact of HI. Specifically, we derive the approximate and asymptotic expressions of the outage probability for the IRS-NOMA-HI networks. Based on the asymptotic results, the diversity orders under perfect self-interference cancellation and imperfect self-interference cancellation scenarios are obtained to evaluate the performance of the considered network. In addition, the system throughput of IRS-NOMA-HI is discussed in delay-limited mode. The obtained results are provided More >
