Abstract

The transmission scheme of intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) assisted non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) downlink multi-cluster system is studied. In this paper, the non-convex optimization problem of maximizing the sum rate of each cluster of users is solved by jointly optimizing the successive interference cancellation (SIC) decoding sequence, power allocation and IRS phase shift, while considering the quality of service of each user. Firstly, the SIC decoding order is determined according to the difference of the combined channel gain. Then, the optimization problem is decoupled into two sub-problems, and the Lagrange function is alternately used for power allocation and semidefinite relaxation (SDR) for phase shift optimization until the optimization objective converges. The simulation results show that compared with other transmission schemes of IRS-NOMA system, the proposed optimization scheme can significantly improve the sum rate of the system.
