Abstract
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has been widely considered to improve the spectral efficiency in terrestrial wireless networks. In this paper, we extend the idea to satellite networks and propose a NOMA-based scheme for coordinated low Earth orbit satellite systems, where the beam-edge user is supported by two satellites. By exploiting the difference of the equivalent downlink channel gains, users located both at the beam-center and beam-edge can be served simultaneously using NOMA. It is shown that the NOMA-based cooperative method is capable of providing a higher system capacity while guarantee the rate quality of the beam-edge user.

A Proof of Theorem 1
Since \(|h_{i,i}|^2\sim \exp (1/L)\) and \(|h_{i,e}|^2\sim \exp (1/(\eta \bar{L}))\), we have
Based on the result derived in [19] (Page 341, line 2), (23) can be derived as
where \(\mathrm {Ei}(x) = -\int _{-x}^{\infty } e^{-r}/rdr\).
From (14), the ergodic rate of User e can be calculated as
Let \(Y\triangleq |h_{1,e}|^2 + |h_{2,e}|^2\). Then, the probability density function of Y can be expressed as \(f_Y(y) = (\frac{1}{\eta \bar{L}})^2 y e^{-y/(\eta \bar{L})}\). From this, we have
Substituting (26) into (25), it can be derived that
Then, we can derive the result in Theorem 1.
The proof is completed.
B Proof of Theorem 2
According to Lemma 1, the ergodic rate for User e is given by
where \(X=\frac{(|h_{1,e}|^2 + |h_{2,e}|^2) \alpha \gamma }{(|h_{1,e}|^2 + |h_{2,e}|^2) (1-\alpha )\gamma + 1}\).
Since \(Y\triangleq |h_{1,e}|^2 + |h_{2,e}|^2\), which has been defined in above, \(F_X(x)\) can be further expressed as
In (29), when \(\alpha \gamma -x(1-\alpha )\gamma >0\), i.e., \(x<\frac{\alpha \gamma }{(1-\alpha )\gamma }\), we have
For the case of \(\alpha \gamma -x(1-\alpha )\gamma <0\), it can be found that \(\mathrm {Pr} (Y(\alpha \gamma -x(1-\alpha )\gamma )\le x)=\mathrm {Pr} (Y\ge \frac{x}{\alpha \gamma -x(1-\alpha )\gamma })=1\) as Y is always a positive random variable. Thus, (29) becomes
Substituting (31) into (28), we have
From (16) and (32), we can derive Theorem 2.
The proof is completed.
