Abstract

In this chapter, we investigate the downlink transmission of a non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA)-based integrated terrestrial-satellite network, in which the NOMA-based terrestrial networks and the satellite cooperatively provide coverage for ground users while reusing the entire bandwidth. A channel quality-based scheme is proposed to select users for the satellite, and we then formulate the terrestrial user pairing as a max–min problem to maximize the minimum channel correlation between users in one NOMA group. We first investigate the capacity performance of the terrestrial networks and the satellite networks separately. Then, a joint iteration algorithm is proposed to maximize the total system capacity, where we introduce the interference temperature limit for the satellite since the satellite can cause interference to all BS users. Finally, numerical results are provided to evaluate the user paring scheme as well as the total system performance.
