The demand for multimedia services is growing day by day in vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs), resulting in high spectral usage and network congestion. Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is a promising wireless communication technique to solve the problems related to spectral efficiency effectively. The index coding (IC) is a powerful method to improve spectral utilization, where a sender aims to satisfy the needs of multiple receivers with a minimum number of transmissions. By combining these two approaches, in this work, we propose a novel technique called index coded NOMA (IC-NOMA), where we apply NOMA techniques on index coded data to reduce the number of transmissions further. This work shows that the IC-NOMA system demands a specific design for index codes to reap the advantages of NOMA. We have done the feasibility analysis of the proposed method in a general scenario and proposed an index code design to integrate IC over NOMA for the best efficiency. The performance gains of proposed system compared to conventional IC system is ilustrated in terms of power efficiency and spectral efficiency.
