SWIPT-enabled NOMA in Distributed Antenna System with Imperfect Channel State Information for Max-Sum-Rate and Max-Min Fairness
share
Motivated by the fact that the data rate of non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) can be greatly increased with the help of the distributed antenna system (DAS), we presents a framework in which the DAS contributes not only to the data rate but also the energy harvesting of simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) enabled NOMA. This study considers the sum-rate maximization problem and the max-min fairness problem for SWIPT-enabled NOMA in DAS and proposes two different schemes of power splitting and power allocation for SWIPT and NOMA, respectively, with imperfect channel state information (CSI). Numerical results validate the theoretical findings and demonstrate that the proposed framework of using SWIPT-enabled NOMA in DAS achieves the higher data rates than the existing SWIPT-enabled NOMA while guaranteeing the minimum harvested energy.
