【 摘 要 】

In this paper, we consider a non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system with coordinated multi-point (CoMP), which is used in 5G cellular networks to guarantee the rate requirements from the different edge users. Based on the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) dataset, we use several learning algorithms to predict users’ rate requirements according to their profiles. We propose a many-to-many two-side subchannel–user matching strategy, which can classify users into cell-center users, high-rate requirement edge users, and low-rate requirement edge users based on their status and learning prediction results, and pair users with different subchannels to form joint transmission CoMP (JT-CoMP) subchannels and dynamic point selection CoMP (DPS-CoMP) subchannels. Furthermore, a discrete power allocation algorithm based on group search is proposed. Simulation results show that our proposed algorithm outperforms the traditional NOMA-CoMP algorithm and maximum throughput (MT) NOMA-CoMP algorithm. It maximizes the rate of high-rate requirement edge users while guaranteeing user fairness.
