Abstract
Rate splitting multiple access (RSMA) is a promising approach that has gained momentous attention in the field of wireless communications. With the increasing demand for higher data rates and reliable connections, traditional multiple access approaches like SDMA, NOMA have limitations in terms of interference management as well as channel state information uncertainty. The effectiveness of the RSMA has been recognized in addressing these limitations and providing improved performance in multi-antenna systems. RSMA ruptures user messages into common as well as private parts – the common part is decoded by all users to mitigate interference while the private part is decoded only by the intended user. This bridges orthogonal and non-orthogonal multiple access schemes. Benefits of RSMA include optimal performance in many scenarios, robustness against imperfect CSIT, lower feedback overhead and complexity compared to alternatives. RSMA has many potential applications in 6G use cases like mMTC, URLLC, V2X, and integrated sensing-communications. Ongoing research is still needed, especially on implementation and standardization. The current study focuses on the notion of rate splitting, the benefits of RSMA, working principle of RSMA, implementation challenges, RSMA's implementation in 5G and beyond, a comparison with other multiple access techniques, as well as its problems and future trends in wireless networks.
