Abstract:

Multiple-input-multiple-output non-orthogonal multiple access(MIMO-NOMA) technique involves the NOMA idea into MIMO systems, which can effectively improve the system energy efficiency and throughput. Nevertheless, complex spatial structures and rapidly varying spatial channels of the MIMO-NOMA system decrease the system's throughput and block its application. To address this issue, this paper proposes a deep-learning-based framework for MIMO-NOMA systems that employs an efficient Convolutional Deep Neural Network(CCDNN) tailored to MIMO-NOMA communications. The method comprises multiple convolutional and hidden layers and is able to solve the power-allocation problem through a dedicated algorithm, thereby improving both the transmission rate and energy efficiency of the MIMO-NOMA system. Numerical simulations are conducted for validation, and the results demonstrate that the proposed CCDNN framework outperforms conventional approaches, offering a viable solution for enhancing MIMO-NOMA power-allocation performance and laying a theoretical foundation for future research in this area.
