Sensors, Vol. 23, Pages 8040: Joint Power and Channel Allocation for Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access in 5G Networks and Beyond Sensors doi: 10.3390/s23198040 Authors: Qusay Alghazali Husam Al-Amaireh Tibor Cinkler Spectral efficiency is a crucial metric in wireless communication systems, as it defines how much information can be transmitted over a given amount of spectrum resources. Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is a promising technology that has captured the interest of the wireless research community because of its capacity to enhance spectral efficiency. NOMA allows multiple users to share the same frequency band and time slot by assigning different power levels and modulation schemes to different users. Furthermore, channel assignment is a critical challenge in OFDMA-NOMA systems that must be addressed to achieve optimal performance. In this context, we propose a solution for both channel and power assignment based on channel condition by splitting the problem into two parts: first, we introduce a novel algorithm to solve the channel user allocation problem, which we refer to as Channel User Sorting and Filling (CUSF). Then, we solve the power allocation problem in two steps: we apply the water filling algorithm at the power assignment and then we implement the Fractional Transmit Power Control (FTPC) algorithm in the NOMA power assignment.
