Claim 11:
12. The first network node of claim 10, wherein
the first network node is further configured to:
obtain first channel gain information indicating the gain of a first channel between the first network node and the first UE;
obtain second channel gain information indicating the gain of a second channel between the second network node and the second UE;
obtain the first UE's buffer size; and
determine a data rate associated with the first UE's buffer size, wherein

the first network node is configured to choose between the NOMA and OMA schemes based on at least the data rate associated with the first UE's buffer size by choosing between the NOMA and OMA schemes using the first channel gain information, the second channel gain information, and the data rate associated with the first UE's buffer size.
