Abstract:
In this letter, we propose a downlink nonorthogonal multiple access network with hybrid long-packet communications (for a central user) and short-packet communications (for a cell-edge user). The outage probability of the central user and average block error rate (BLER) of the cell-edge user in flat Rayleigh fading channels are theoretically derived. Furthermore, we provide the asymptotic outage probability and average BLER when the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is high. Numerical results illustrate that both the analytical outage probability of the central user and the analytical average BLER of the cell-edge user match the simulation results.
