Abstract

SummaryThe need for fifth generation (5G) wireless technology to meet stringent demands on high throughput, ultra low latency, high reliability, massive connectivity, and fairness among users has seriously constrained the limited radio spectrum. Non‐orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has been identified as one of the promising enabling radio access techniques to solve this problem. The basic principle of NOMA is the ability to serve multiple users in the same time and frequency resources but differentiated by their power domains. However, the inherent power‐domain multiplexing requires channel gain disparity between the strong and weak users, thereby reducing the sum‐rate gain of the network. In this paper, we propose NOMA scheme, integrated with carrier aggregation (CA) to further increase the bandwidth and data rate of users. Simulation results show considerable improvement in terms of throughput, energy efficiency, and fairness among users.
