Title
A Simple User Grouping And Pairing Scheme For Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access In Vlc System
Abstract
In this paper, a simple user grouping and pairing scheme is proposed for non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) and is applied for the downlink visible light communication (VLC) system. The proposed scheme is a mix of both NOMA and the conventional orthogonal multiple access (OMA) schemes. In the proposed scheme, every two users are paired using NOMA and all pairs are allocated with conventional OMA. The performance of the proposed scheme is compared to the performance of the conventional OMA in terms of the maximum sum rate. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme provides higher sum rate compared with the OMA scheme.
