Abstract: In this paper,a power allocation algorithm is proposed for non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) communication systems with multiple input multiple output (MIMO).The base station (BS) divides the connected users into several clusters,and deals with the inter-cluster interference by zero-forcing receiving method and the intra-cluster interference by successive interference cancellation method.To improve the energy efficiency performance of the MIMO-NOMA system,the transmit power allocation is optimized at the BS.We formulate the power allocation problem as a nonconvex optimization problem with a fractio-nal form,which is difficult to solve directly.First,an auxiliary variable is introduced to transform the original objective function into a non-fractional form,and it is searched by the bisection method.Since the optimization problem after transformation is still a non-convex problem,it is then solved by a quadratic transformation and an iterative processing.The theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the proposed method can effectively improve the energy efficiency and sum-rate performance of the communication system compared with the traditional orthogonal access method.In addition,the proposed method can ensure the fairness between users by adjusting the weight factor.
