Abstract

Basically, nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) allows controllable interferences by nonorthogonal resource allocation with a tolerable increase in receiver complexity, using successive interference cancellation (SIC). In this paper, authors show a novel mathematical model of teletraffic for users accessing, simultaneously, to Wi-Fi and LTE services by using NOMA, calculating the birth–death process by order statistics. This methodology has not been previously used. The mathematical model is represented by a two-dimensional Markovian process where the users can born or die in one system or another, independently, and results are validated through simulations. The outcomes demonstrate an increment of the sum-rate gain for a system where users are ordered in the power domain using order statistics, according to the signal interference plus noise ratio (SINR), compared to a system where these statistics are not employed. By using the proposed mathematical model, the sum-rate gain increases around 15%, and it is also demonstrated that this algorithm foresees a steady behavior of the sum rate, even when the number of channels is augmented, contrary when no order statistics are employed, in which the sum rate decreases considerably. On the other hand, the blocking probability is also demonstrated based on the chance of moving from one technology to another.
