Abstract

In fifth generation (5G) wireless networks, radio access techniques and multi-carrier waveforms play a vital role in meeting the diversified demands of ultra-low latency, massive connectivity, and higher throughput. Multi-access schemes used conventionally in 4G system was Orthogonal Multiple Access (OMA) technique. The OMA techniques suffer from inefficient spectrum utilization, high latency, and supports a limited number of users. Next-generation networks, Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA), has a great potential, in which multiple users are simultaneously served using the same time, frequency, or code resource increasing the throughput. Code domain-NOMA (CD-NOMA) is the key technique implemented in the system design where multiple users are distinguished based on unique user-specific spreading codes. The NOMA system could significantly benefit from Universal Filtered Multi-Carrier (UFMC) modulation waveform in terms of flexibility, spectral efficiency, compatibility with Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) technique, and relaxed synchronization requirements. The novel integrated system proposed in the paper is CD-NOMA-UFMC with convolutional codes. The major outcome of the paper is that the combination of UFMC air interface modulation technique with CD-NOMA access method can be the most effective way to meet the growing demands of 5G.
