Resource Allocation For Energy Efficient Noma Uav Network Under Imperfect Csi

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are developing rapidly owing to flexible deployment and access services as air base stations. However, the energy efficiency of the UAVs cells using non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) with imperfect channel state information (CSI) hasnt been well studied yet. Therefore, we maximize energy efficiency in the downlink NOMA UAV network considering imperfect CSI between the UAV and users. Resource allocation schemes including user scheduling as well as power allocation are designed for system energy efficiency optimization. Because of the non-convexity of optimization function with an probability constraint for imperfect CSI, the original problem is converted into a non-probability problem and then decoupled into two convex subproblems by successive convex approximation method. First, a user scheduling method is applied in the two-side matching of users and subchannels by the difference of convex programming. Then based on user scheduling, the energy efficiency in UAV cells is optimized through a suboptimal power allocation algorithm. The simulation results prove that our proposed algorithm is more effective compared with existing resource allocation schemes.
