摘要:

速率分割多址(rate-splitting multiple access, RSMA)在频谱效率、能量效率等性能方面优于非正交多址(non-orthogonal multiple access, NOMA),是第六代(sixth generation, 6G)移动通信最有潜力的多址技术。索引调制(index modulation, IM)技术通过利用通信系统资源的索引来发送附加信息比特,可以提高系统的能量效率、频谱效率和误比特率性能。针对IM-NOMA系统频谱效率低的问题,首次将IM引入到RSMA中,提出了一个两用户单天线的IM-RSMA系统。该系统在正交频分复用(orthogonal frequency division multiplexing,OFDM)RSMA的基础上将子载波作为索引资源来发送额外的信息比特,在接收端提出了最大似然(maximum likelihood, ML)检测和接近ML性能的低复杂度对数似然比(log-likelihood ratio, LLR)检测。通过理论分析和仿真,对比了不同系统的性能,结果表明所提出的系统相较于现有的IM-NOMA在频谱效率和误比特率方面有着明显优势。

Abstract:

Rate-splitting multiple access (RSMA) outperforming non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) in spectral efficiency and energy efficiency, stands as the most promising multiple access technology for sixth generation (6G) networks. Index modulation (IM) technology, which uses the index of communication system resources to send additional information bits, can improve the system’s energy efficiency, spectral efficiency, and bit error rate performance. To address the low spectral efficiency issue in IM-NOMA systems, IM is introduced into RSMA for the first time and an IM-RSMA system with two users and a single antenna is proposed. This system builds on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) RSMA by using subcarriers as index resources to transmit additional information bits. At the receiver end, it proposes maximum likelihood (ML) detection and low complexity log-likelihood ratio (LLR) detection that approaches ML performance. Through theoretical analysis and simulation, the performance of different systems is compared, and the results show that the proposed system has significant advantages over existing IM-NOMA in terms of spectral efficiency and bit error rate.

Key words: rate-splitting multiple access (RSMA), index modulaiton (IM), spectral efficiency, bit error rate
