Abstract
In a wireless cellular system, resource allocation among active users is a challenging task. The cellular systems with nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) solve the problem of bandwidth and time allocation. All the active users in the same NOMA cluster are allowed to access the complete cluster bandwidth at the same time. However, power allocation in NOMA is a multiconstraint optimization problem. The complexity of power allocation increases with the increase in the number of users inside the cluster. This article presents a novel technique for power allocation in a NOMA downlink cluster, using the magic sum of the magic matrix. The sum throughput (SUMTP) and the min–max fairness index (MMFI) are calculated and compared with an existing method for the downlink NOMA system. The proposed method shows comparable SUMTP performance to the conventional optimized method while ensuring better MMFI. We observed an inverse association between SUMTP and MMFI. In addition, the execution time of the proposed method is much lesser than that of the conventional optimized method owing to lower number of flops required for magic-matrix-based power allocation.
