Abstract

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) enables the messages of multiple users to be multiplexed in the power domain by superposition coding at the transmitter side and to be decoded by successive interference cancelation (SIC) at the receiver side. This non-orthogonality enables each user to occupy the whole time–frequency resources such that it overcomes the loss of degree-of-freedom (DoF) caused by orthogonal multiple access (OMA). Therefore, NOMA can achieve higher spectrum efficiency, support massive connectivity, and reduce latency. In this chapter, NOMA is introduced to millimeter wave (mmWave) networks to further improve the spectrum efficiency and support massive connectivity. The unicast, multicast, and cooperative multicast transmissions for mmWave-NOMA networks are studied. Their performance in terms of coverage probability, outage probability, and sum rate is also provided.
