Abstract: | The Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) based on Spatial Modulation (SM-MIMO-NOMA) system has been proposed to achieve better spectral efficiency with reduced radio frequency chains comparing to the traditional MIMO-NOMA system. To improve the performance of SM-MIMO-NOMA systems, we extend them to generalized spatial modulation scenarios while maintaining moderate complexity and fairness. In this paper, system spectral efficiency and transmission quality improvements are proposed by investigating a sum-rate maximization resource allocation problem that is subject to the total transmitted power, user grouping, and resource block constraints. To solve this non-convex and difficult problem, a graph-based user grouping strategy is proposed initially to maximize the mutual gains of intragroup users. An auxiliary-variable approach is then adopted to transform the power allocation subproblem into a convex one. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has better performance in terms of bit error rate and sum rates. |
