Abstrakt:
In this work, we propose a multiple feedback-based successive interference cancellation (SIC) scheme for an ultra-dense Internet of Things (IoT) device network. Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) enables massive connectivity with improved user fairness and spectral efficiency and is envisaged as a multiple access technique for IoT devices. NOMA simultaneously serves multiple users within a single resource block, leading to unbounded yet regulated multi-user interference. SIC is widely adopted in the NOMA system to detect users’ symbols. Nevertheless, multi-user interference and error propagation in the SIC layer are inherent challenges in NOMA. Recent studies have aimed to minimize interference and error propagation, imposing stringent conditions on the number of users and power allocation. Thus, this paper proposes novel multiple feedback-based SIC algorithms for the uplink multi-user NOMA scenarios that outperform the conventional SIC. Further, the proposed algorithm’s performance is analyzed under the practical case of imperfect channel state information at the receiver node to validate the robustness. The computational complexity of multiple feedback SIC is compared with the conventional SIC. © The Author(s) 2024.
