Abstract
High-speed railway (HSR) wireless communications are required to support high data rate with seamless connectivity. In this paper, we investigate the outage performance of a downlink single-cell non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) based wireless network in HSR scenarios, where it is challenging to derive the perfect channel state information (CSI) and the distribution of the users are quite different from the traditional cellular scenarios. More specifically, the performance of NOMA over composite large-scale and Rician fading channel is studied with two kinds of partial CSI, e.g., imperfect small-scale CSI and no small-scale CSI. We derive the exact closed-form expression of the outage probability based on partial CSI, respectively, by using the Gauss-Chebyshev quadrature method. Finally, simulation results evidence the validity of the derived results and show that the average outage probability of NOMA systems outperforms conventional orthogonal multiple access systems.
