EURASIP JWCN_Rate-Splitting_noma_NOMAcvx_ratesplitting_NOMAmatla

This is a code package related to the following conference paper:Y. Mao B. Clerckx and V. O. K. Li "Rate-splitting multiple access for downlink communication systems: bridging generalizing and outperforming SDMA and NOMA." EURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking 2018.1 (2018): 133.The code in all packages are implemented in Matlab environment with CVX toolbox assisted. In the 'Figure 6b' code package Fig. 6(b) of the above paper will be reproduced by running the Matlab script 'main.m'. By changing the variables 'bias' (channel gain difference between the users) 'NT'(number of transmit antenna) you can reproduce Fig. 5--Fig. 6.
