Abstract
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has been treated as a promising technology to improve the computation offloading performance of mobile edge computing (MEC). A complete understanding of the impact of applying NOMA on MEC is essential for network operators to deploy MEC systems. In this letter, we develop a mathematical framework to analyze the impact of NOMA on offloading decisions in MEC, which captures the interaction among the offloading decisions of multiple co-channel users. Using stochastic geometry and order statistics, we derive the expression for the computation offloading probability of the $n$ -th ranked user in terms of serving distances in a NOMA-based MEC system. Numerical simulations are performed to verify the accuracy of our analysis and demonstrate the performance gain of applying NOMA on MEC.
