| Summary: | In this paper, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is studied at downlink under impact of surrounding interference. This study benefits the practical NOMA system since spatially random interference is adopted. More specifically, we consider the antenna selection strategy applied at the base station and compare the performance of two users. By applying a stochastic geometry-based model, homogeneous Poisson point process (PPP) is employed to consider the spatial topology of interference which is located near to users, and such a model is extremely suitable for practical consideration. We first consider outage probability and then ergodic capacity is examined as main metrics to recommend such model in practice. According to the considered antenna section scheme of the base station, we compare these schemes related to selected antenna serving each user. To confirm exactness of derived expressions, we perform Monte Carlo simulations to verify the analytical results.
