Cancelled - NOMA: Signal Processing Advances and Emerging Applications

This event has been cancelled.

Join Dr Yuanwei Liu as he speaks about recent developments on NOMA.

Mobile data traffic, especially mobile video traffic and small but numerous IoT packets have dramatically increased in recent years with the emergence of smart phones, tablets, and various new applications. It is hence crucial to increase the network capacity to accommodate these bandwidth-thirsty applications and services.

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), which has been recently proposed for the 3rd generation partnership project's long-term evolution advanced (3GPP-LTE-A), constitutes a promising technique of enhancing the spectral efficiency and supporting massive connectivity in the emerging beyond 5G networks by accommodating several users within the same orthogonal resource block, via multiplexing at different power levels.

By doing so, significant spectral efficiency improvements can be attained over conventional orthogonal multiple access (OMA) techniques.
