Abstract
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) continues to receive enormous attention as a potential technique for improving the spectral efficiency (SE) of wireless networks. Although for several years most research efforts on the performance of NOMA systems focused on the ergodic sum-rate and outage probability, recent works have shifted towards error rate analysis of various NOMA configurations and designs. While the influx of publications on this topic is rich in lessons and innovations, the sheer volume of it makes it easy to get caught up in the details, so much so that one often loses sight of the overall picture. This paper serves as a survey on NOMA error rate analysis, painted in the large with bold and immediately recognizable strokes of insights to facilitate for the reader to understand and follow the up-to-date progress in this area. In addition to summarizing the principles of NOMA error rate analysis, this work aims to minimize redundancy and overlaps, identify research gaps, and outline future research directions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
