摘要:

本文提出了一种新颖的语义赋能的两人上行非正交多址接入(NOMA)框架,以提升资源效率。具体而言,次要远用户(F-user)采用语义通信(SemCom),而主要近用户(N-user)采用传统的基于比特的通信(BitCom)。本文刻画了所提出的语义赋能NOMA框架的基本性能极限,即语义对比特(SvB)速率区域。同时给出了传统基于BitCom的NOMA所能达到的等效SvB速率区域作为基准方案。结果表明,与BitCom相比,当次要远用户的允许发射功率受到严格限制时,SemCom能够显著提升其性能;但当允许发射功率较高时,SemCom的性能可能较差。基于这一结果,本文进一步在衰落信道下研究了所提出的语义赋能NOMA框架。提出了一种机会式SemCom和BitCom方案,使次要远用户能够在每个衰落状态下通过最合适的通信方式参与NOMA,从而在其自身可达性能与对主要近用户造成的干扰之间取得良好折中。针对机会式方案的应用考虑了两种场景,即开关式资源管理和连续资源管理。针对每种场景,推导了衰落信道下的最优通信策略,以在主要近用户最小遍历比特速率约束下最大化次要远用户获得的遍历语义速率。数值结果表明,与仅采用SemCom或BitCom的基准方案相比,所提出的机会式方案在两种场景下均能为NOMA实现更高的通信性能。

英文摘要:

A novel semantics-empowered two-user uplink non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) framework is proposed for resource efficiency enhancement. More particularly, a secondary far user (F-user) employs the semantic communication (SemCom) while a primary near user (N-user) employs the conventional bit-based communication (BitCom). The fundamental performance limit, namely semantic-versus-bit (SvB) rate region, of the proposed semantics-empowered NOMA framework is characterized. The equivalent SvB rate region achieved by the conventional BitCom-based NOMA is provided as the baseline scheme. It unveils that, compared to BitCom, SemCom can significantly improve the F-user's performance when its permitted transmit power is strictly capped, but may perform worse when its permitted transmit power is high. Guided by this result, the proposed semantics-empowered NOMA framework is investigated over fading channels. An opportunistic SemCom and BitCom scheme is proposed, which enables the secondary F-user to participate in NOMA via the most suitable communication method at each fading state, thus striking a good tradeoff between its own achieved performance and the interference imposed to the primary N-user. Two scenarios are considered for employing the opportunistic scheme, namely on-off resource management and continuous resource management. For each scenario, the optimal communication policy over fading channels is derived for maximizing the ergodic semantic rate achieved at the secondary F-user, subject to the minimum ergodic bit rate constraint of the primary N-user. Numerical results show that the proposed opportunistic scheme in both scenarios can achieve higher communication performance for NOMA than the baseline schemes merely employing SemCom or BitCom.
