TECHNIQUES OF ADAPTIVE ALLOCATION OF FREQUENCY AND POWER FOR MULTI-USER SCHEDULING IN MULTI-CELL NON-ORTHOGONAL MULTIPLE ACCESS NETWORK

摘要

A method of performing multi-user scheduling of a multi-cell NOMA network is disclosed. The disclosed method allocates different subbands in the first portion of the available frequency band for the UEs in the CE user group, wherein the data rate of each UE is above the minimum rate threshold and the total allocated power for all UEs in the CE user group Determining power for each subband allocated to be below the maximum power threshold allowable by this cell, assigning a specific subband allocated for a particular UE in the CE user group to the selected UE in the CC user group, Allocating the power determined for the particular subband between the particular UE and the selected UE such that the data rate of the selected UE is below the maximum rate threshold.
