Abstract

Multi-user shared access (MUSA) is a kind of Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA), which is suitable for multi-user transmission and has better channel capacity. This paper analyzes the influencing factors of power allocation on the performance of downlink MUSA from the perspective of sum rate of users and bit error ratio (BER) performance. This paper considers a two-user scenario. A power allocation method based on sum rate of users is proposed and a closed-form expression of the sum rate and power allocation coefficients of users is given in the MUSA downlink scenario. In order to analyze and discuss the impact factors of power allocation on MUSA system performance, extensive simulation results are provided to evaluate the performance of the proposed method under different user weight-ratio scenarios. Through these simulation results, the proposed method is proved to be realistic. Based on this result, a power allocation algorithm for a multi-user scenario is presented in this paper.
