Table 1
Distinction between OMA and NOMA.
| Specifications | OMA | NOMA |
| Full form | Orthogonal multiple access | Nonorthogonal multiple access | Energy consumption | Less | More | Receiver complexity | Low | High | Number of user pairs | More | Less | Number of users/clusters | Higher | Lower | System throughput (assumption: user fairness is guaranteed) | Smaller | Larger |
