In this paper, we investigate a downlink non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) transmission scheme for hybrid millimeter-wave (mmWave) system and study its user grouping and power allocation. In order to maximize the weighted sum-rate (WSR) of the system, we first propose a user grouping algorithm based on min-sum message passing (MSMP) strategy under the limited number of radio frequency (RF) chains. Then, with the zero-forcing (ZF) digital precoding, we propose a power allocation scheme for multiple-RF-chain NOMA (MRFC-NOMA) structure based on a non-convex transformation method, and design a low-complexity algorithm. The simulation results show that the proposed joint user grouping and power allocation method with lower complexity can achieve better WSR performance than the traditional schemes.
