Summary:A resource allocation method is proposed to maximize the energy efficiency for covert communication in downlink NOMA systems via reradiating on antennas. Firstly, the optimization problem of maximizing the effective covert energy efficiency of the covert user is constructed under the condition of satisfying the outage probability of the public user and the error detection probability of the warden. Then, the optimization problem is simplified, and the solution of the optimization problem is given when the power allocation coefficient of NOMA is known. Finally, the optimal solution is obtained by traversing the power allocation coefficient of NOMA and solving the optimization problem for each power allocation coefficient. The simulation results show that with the increase of the total power, the energy efficiency first increases and then tends to a constant, that is, there is an optimal value of the power allocation coefficient, which maximizes the energy efficiency.
