Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which different spreading sequences may be used to distinguish concurrent non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) transmissions. The spreading sequences may be selected based on one or more codebooks configured at a user equipment (UE) and a codebook for an uplink NOMA transmission determined based on a set of common resources allocated for the uplink NOMA transmission and a number of expected transmitters in a transmitter group. The UE may identify data to transmit in the uplink NOMA transmission, apply the spreading sequence to the data, and transmit the spread data in the uplink NOMA transmission. A base station may receive multiple concurrent uplink NOMA transmissions, perform receive signal processing to identify spreading signals and UE identity, de-spread the signals based on different spreading sequences, and demodulate and decode the de-spread signals of the NOMA UE.

Claim (Index 27):
The apparatus of  claim 26 , wherein the plurality of spreading sequences are determined using a closed form expression in which each of the plurality of spreading sequences can be determined based on a number of resources in the set of uplink resources and the number of transmitters in the group of transmitters.
