In this paper, we investigate the issues of joint user pairing and subchannel allocation (JUP-SA) in a multisubchannel multiuser nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system. We first investigate the uplink and propose a JUP-SA scheme so that the minimum achievable diversity order of users is maximiz...
