NON-ORTHOGONAL MULTIPLE ACCESS HYBRID AUTOMATIC REPEAT REQUEST

Abstract:

A device of a receiver, a method and a machine readable medium to implement the method. The method includes: determining a residual rate to identify a decoding estimate for a first packet sent from a wireless first transmitter; determining a grouping of transmitters including the first transmitter and a wireless second transmitter scheduled to transmit a second packet; performing power optimization by determining lowest necessary transmission powers corresponding, respectively, to transmissions of the first packet from the first transmitter and of the second packet from the second transmitter, wherein the transmissions of the first and second packets are within a same time-frequency resource and together define a signal to be received at the receiver; and encoding for transmission to the first and second transmitters information on the signal based on the residual rate, the grouping and the power optimization.
