The next generation Internet of Things (IoT) exhibits a unique feature that IoT devices have different energy profiles and quality service (QoS) requirements. In this paper, two spectrally efficient transmission strategies, namely wireless power transfer assisted non-orthogonal multiple access (WPT-NOMA) backscatter communication (Back-Com) NOMA (BAC-NOMA), are proposed by utilizing employing s...

The proliferation of mobile Internet and connected devices, offering a variety of services at different levels of performance, represents a major challenge for the fifth generation wireless networks and beyond. This requires a paradigm shift towards the development of key enabling techniques for the next generation wireless networks. In this respect, visible light communication (VLC) has recent...

Future multi-tier communication networks will require enhanced network capacity and reduced overhead. In the absence of Channel State Information (CSI) at the transmitters, Blind Interference Alignment (BIA) and Topological Interference Management (TIM) can achieve optimal Degrees of Freedom (DoF), minimizing network’s overhead. In addition, Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) can increase th...

The fundamental power allocation requirements for NOMA systems with minimum quality of service (QoS) requirements are investigated. For any minimum QoS rate R0, the limits on the power allocation coefficients for each user are derived, such that any power allocation coefficient outside of these limits creates an outage with probability equal to 1. The power allocation coefficients that facilita...

A non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) empowered integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) framework is investigated. dual-functional base station serves users employing NOMA, while the superimposed NOMA signal simultaneously exploited for target sensing. beamforming design problem formulated to maximize weighted sum of throughput effective power. To solve this problem, an efficient double-l...

To improve the sum-rate (SR) of the dual-hop relay system, a novel two-stage power allocation scheme with non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is proposed. In this scheme, after the reception of the superposition coded symbol with a power allocation from the source, the relay node forwards a new superposition coded symbol with another power allocation to the destination. By employing the maxim...

As an advanced non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technique, the low density signature (LDS) has never been used in filter bank multicarrier (FBMC) systems. In this paper, we model a low density weight matrix (LDWM) to utilize the intrinsic interference in FBMC systems when single-tap equalization is employed, and propose a LDS-FBMC scheme which applies LDS to FBMC signals. In addition, a jo...

The sizes of Japanese native horses have drastically decreased, and protection of these populations is important for Japanese horse culture. Social trials as well as scientific attempts are necessary for maintaining the breed. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have potential as a cell source for various cell therapies. However, there have been no reports on MSCs of Japanese native horses. We aimed ...

This letter puts forth an analytical approach to evaluate the outage probability of power-based NOMA on the uplink of a 5G cell, the outage being defined as the event where the receiver fails to successfully decode all the simultaneously received signals. In the examined scenario, Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) is considered and an arbitrary number of superimposed signals is present...

Orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) is being pursued in recent times as a suitable wireless transmission technology for use high mobility scenarios. In this work, we propose nonorthogonal multiple acess (NOMA) based OTFS which may be called NOMA-OTFS system and evaluate its performance from level link perspective. The challenge lies the fact that while known resilience to conditions, NOMA yi...
