Abstract:Environment division multiple access (EDMA) exploits line-of-sight (LoS) availability, blockage diversity, and spatial isolation in the propagation environment to regulate inter-region interference, while non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) improves intra-region access efficiency through power-domain multiplexing and successive interference cancellation (SIC). This paper investigates heterogeneous environment-map-aware user matching and power allocation for pinching-antenna-assisted EDMA-NOMA systems. Based on large-scale path loss and an exponential LoS blockage model, an average LoS/NLoS effective large-scale channel gain is constructed, allowing the environment map to affect both desired service links and inter-region interference links. This avoids the overly optimistic assumption that environmental blockage only suppresses interference. A utility-based joint user-pairing and power-allocation algorithm (UBA-JPPA) is then proposed to jointly account for system throughput and the scheduled-user Jain fairness index under NOMA power constraints and an SIC-consistent rate definition. Simulation results show that, compared with the ablation baseline without a heterogeneous environment map, the proposed scheme provides consistent gains in sum rate, fairness, and the throughput--fairness operating region. Meanwhile, a strong EDMA-OMA benchmark remains competitive in some high-SNR regimes, indicating that the focus of this work is to verify the benefit of heterogeneous environment information for EDMA-NOMA resource allocation rather than to claim that NOMA universally outperforms OMA.
