On the Detection Optimality and Exact BER Analysis of NOMA
Tasneem Assaf, Hamad Yahya, Arafat Al-Dweik
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) detection using successive interference cancellation (SIC) and joint multiuser maximum likelihood (JML) has been extensively studied, although their presumed optimality for individual-user bit error rate (BER) minimization is unestablished. M…
