a novel resource allocation scheme for full-duplex NOMA systems with power splitting based SWIPT

چکیده مقاله

Abstract This paper introduces novel resource allocation (RA) algorithms for optimizing wireless network performance, focusing on a full-duplex (FD) base station (BS) employing non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technology. Motivated by the intriguing trade-off introduced by the simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) scheme, in which achievable data rates are sacrificed to enhance harvested energy, this study aims to quantify the delicate equilibrium between two vital aspects meticulously: the overall achievable data rate facilitated by NOMA and FD technologies and the energy harvested via the SWIPT approach. Specifically, our focus is on jointly optimizing the enhancement of both data rate and harvested energy for downlink (DL) users where a multi-objective optimization approach is developed in the proposed RA algorithm to study the existing trade-off between these conflicting objective functions. This problem optimizes the power allocation for both the BS and the users, allocating subcarriers, and optimizing the power splitting factor for SWIPT scheme. We developed efficient iterative solutions for the intended RA problems because they involve complex mixed-integer nonlinear optimization challenges that are generally difficult to solve. The effectiveness of the proposed RA framework is demonstrated using simulation results. These results investigate whether FD MC-NOMA systems, enabled by the proposed RA algorithms, provide a significant increase in system throughput compared to both conventional half-duplex (HD) multicarrier orthogonal multiple access (MC-OMA) systems and HD MC-NOMA systems, as well as other baseline methods. The results also demonstrate that our proposed scheme allows for a greater power harvest than the OMA-FD configuration and other baseline schemes.
