Abstract

To improve spectral efficiency in multi-cell systems, we propose a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) non-orthogonal multiple access technique that simultaneously transmits multiple data streams to a cluster consisting of one cell-center user and one cell-edge user. Based on the MIMO channel state of the cell-center user, the proposed technique for single-cell systems finds the receive beamforming matrix for the user and performs power allocation to its data streams. Considering the MIMO channel state of the cell-edge user and interference from the cell-center user, the technique designs the receive beamforming matrix for the cell-edge user and allocates the power for the user to its data streams. By extending this technique to multi-cell systems, the proposed technique finds the receive beamforming matrix for the cell-center user and performs power allocation to its data streams according to its MIMO channel state and interference from neighboring cells. The receive beamforming matrix design and power allocation for the cell-edge user is performed based on its MIMO channel state, interference from the cell-center user, and interference from neighboring cells. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed technique achieves better performance than the existing techniques in terms of data rates and outage probabilities for the users.
