Density Evolution Analysis of Sparse-Block IDMA
arXiv:2507.13689
Abstract
Sparse block interleaver division multiple access (SB-IDMA) is a recently introduced unsourced multiple access protocol that aims to improve the performance of the grant-free two-step random access transmission protocol of the 3GPP 5G New Radio standard. We introduced a density evolution analysis of the successive interference cancellation receiver of SB-IDMA, providing a theoretical characterization of its performance.
