Abstract

In this paper, antenna diversity is used to improve the outage performance of downlink non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems combined with single-user multiple-input multiple-output (SU-MIMO) due to the statistical channel state information (CSI), that the transmitter only knows the statistical characteristic associated with each user's channel matrix. We design the precoding and detection vectors, which makes the proposed MIMO-NOMA system reduce to a single-antenna NOMA system with statistical CSI. Next, a dynamic power allocation scheme is proposed to maximize the ergodic sum rate of the considered NOMA group with the minimum ergodic rate constraints of the weaker users. Under this power allocation, we analyze the impact of user clustering and then develop a novel user clustering algorithm. Also, the outage analysis indicates that the proposed system only obtains receive diversity and under the proposed power allocation, the users' diversity gains are linear with their successive interference cancellation decoding orders. Simulation results confirm our proposed analysis.
