I NTRODUCTION In the history of munications from the first generation (1G) to 4G, the multiple access scheme has been the key technology to distinguish different wireless systems. It is well known that frequency-division multiple access (FDMA) for 1G, time-division multiple access (TDMA) mostly for 2G, code-division multiple access (CDMA) for 3G, and orthogonal frequen- cy-division multiple access (OFDMA) for 4G are primarily orthogonal multiple access (OMA) schemes. In these conventional multiple access schemes, different users are allocated to orthog- onal resources in either the time, frequency, or code domain in order to avoid or alleviate inter- user interference. In this way, multiplexing gain can be achieved with plexity. However, the fast growt
