Description
Summary:A single-tier downlink Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) network is considered in this paper where analytical framework is given for performance evaluation. Particularly, the outage probability at the downlink users is studied under the impact of imperfect Channel State Information (CSI). The inter-cell interference and the intra-cell interference are also taken into consideration to capture practical behaviors of the proposed system. Further, we also adopt the Poisson Point Process (PPP) to model the location of the base stations and the downlink users in this work. For the imperfect CSI scenario, the results point out that the more times the user spends on performing interference cancellation, the more severe the user is affected by channel estimation error and vice versa. The results for the outage probability expressed in the analytical-forms are then confirmed by the Monte Carlo simulations.
