A New Cooperative and Distributed Antenna Structure in Massive MIMO-NOMA Based on mmWave Transmission Scheme

In this paper, we propose a new massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system with a cooperative and distributed antenna structure based on a millimeter-wave (mmWave) transmission system. We proposed this method to obtain high energy efficiency (EE) and spectrum efficiency (SE) by using the mmWave transmission scheme. In the proposed system, the user selects a few nearby base stations (BS) to create a virtual cell to own the serving BS antenna set. We concentrate on the mmWave massive MIMO-NOMA scheme. In this scheme, a large number of BS antennas and users by uniform distributions (UD) are considered in a specific area. Also, we combine our proposed method by interleaving division multiple access (IDMA) and utilize the IMDA benefits for high-rate applications. The proposed transmission scheme significantly improves the performance output in terms of SE, EE, sum rate, and log sum rate, according to our simulation results
