Popis: In order to fully utilize the spectrum resources, this work considers a unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) uplink communication system based on non-orthogonal multiple access technology (NOMA), in which the UAV receives information from the ground users with a certain flying altitude. As an initial study, we consider a simplified setup with two ground users to draw some insightful results. Explicitly, we first formulate an optimization problem that maximizes the sum throughput subject to each user's transmit power constraint and their corresponding minimum transmission rate requirement. Then, both the optimal transmit power and UAV's deployment location are derived with the aid of employing the Karush-Kuhn-Tucher (KKT) conditions. Simulation results show that the proposed UAV's deployment scheme with the users' power allocation can achieve a higher sum throughput compared with two existing benchmark schemes.
