Power domain non-orthogonal multiple access (PD-NOMA) is one of the most perspective multiplexing technologies that allows improving the capacity of actual networks. Unlike orthogonal multiple access (OMA), the PD-NOMA non-orthogonally schedules multiple users in the power domain in the same orthogonal time-spectrum resource segment. Thus, a non-orthogonal multiplexed signal is a combination of several user signals (usually, modulation and coding schemes (MCS) based on quadrature amplitude modulation) with different power weights. The symbol error rate (SER) and bit error rate (BER) performances are one of the main quality characteristics of any commutation channel. The issue is that a known analytical expression for BER and SER calculation for conventional OMA cannot be applied in terms of the PD-NOMA. In the following work, we have derived the SER and BER analytical expressions for gray-coded square quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) user channels that are transmitted in two-user PD-NOMA channel under additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). Through the simulation, the verification of the provided expressions is presented for four multiplexing configurations with various user power weights and QAM order combinations.
