Abstract
In order to comprehensively improve the performance of edge users in heterogeneous cellular networks and the fairness of network users, a downlink interference coordination optimization strategy in heterogeneous cellular networks with non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) based on the cell range expansion (CRE) and the almost blank subframe (ABS) technology is proposed. Different from the traditional interference coordination strategy, a NOMA user pairing scheme combined with ABS technology and a dynamic NOMA power allocation scheme are designed to maximize the network fairness based on the optimized throughput of the edge users. The simulation results show that the proposed optimization strategy can balance the performance of network users more effectively to improve the throughput of edge users and network fairness than other NOMA user pairing and power allocation algorithms without the complexity being increased.
