Abstract
Sparse code multiple access (SCMA) is a competitive non-orthogonal multiple access technique for the fifth generation (5G) wireless communications. The SCMA codebook design is a very essential problem. This paper presents a constellation-rotation-based method for designing codebooks for downlink SCMA system. The basic idea is to make the minimum Euclidean distance of the main-constellation as larger as possible, so as to achieve good BER (bit error rate) performance. By constructing proper sub-constellations and Latin matrix, it is able to achieve a good shaping gain. Simulation results show that the proposed SCMA codebooks provides good BER performance in both additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and flat fading channels.Keywords
