Abstract
In order to improve the spectral efficiency, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) with superposition coding is employed in a coordinated system where downlink signals to users near to base stations (BSs) and cell-edge users are transmitted simultaneously. To support a cell-edge user in a NOMA channel, two coordinated BSs use Alamouti code. In order to see the performance, we derive expressions for the transmission rates to near and cell-edge users. It is shown that the proposed coordinated superposition coding (CSC) scheme can provide a reasonable transmission rate to a cell-edge user without degrading the rates to users near to BSs.
