Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of wireless communication technology, and specifically to a power allocation optimization method for a D2D cooperative NOMA system in a short packet communication scenario. Background Technology

[0002] Short packet communication, as a key technology in 5G and subsequent communication systems, is widely used in scenarios with stringent requirements for transmission latency and reliability, such as vehicle-to-everything (V2X) and industrial IoT. In these scenarios, data block lengths are relatively short, rendering traditional long packet communication theory based on Shannon channel capacity inapplicable. Therefore, it is necessary to combine finite block length communication theory with these technologies to analyze system performance.

[0003] NOMA technology differentiates between different users in the power domain, enabling multiple users to share the same time-frequency resources, effectively improving spectrum utilization and system capacity. Meanwhile, D2D communication allows neighboring users to transmit data directly without base station forwarding, alleviating base station transmission pressure and reducing end-to-end latency. Combining D2D communication with NOMA technology to build a D2D-assisted cooperative NOMA system can further optimize system performance in short packet communication scenarios.

[0004] Existing power allocation strategies in cooperative NOMA systems are mostly based on the assumption of long packet communication, failing to fully consider the finite block length characteristics of short packet communication. This results in insufficient average effective throughput in low-latency, short-packet transmission scenarios, making it difficult to meet user transmission rate demands. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a power allocation optimization method adapted to the constraints of short-packet communication, maximizing the system's average effective throughput and improving communication performance.
