This work addresses critical challenge of efficient Power Allocation (PA) in Multi-Carrier Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (MC-NOMA) systems for 5G/6G wireless networks under dynamic channel conditions. A novel Game Theory-based Aware Power Allocation Optimization (GTA-PAO) model is proposed to optimize the sum-rate while reducing energy consumption. The methodology integrates mobility effects, imperfect Channel State Information (CSI), and Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) reduction to ensure robustness in fast-fading environments. Simulation results in highway and expressway scenarios demonstrate significant performance gains, including notable reductions in Bit Error Rate (BER) and PAPR alongside considerable improvements in sum-rate. The findings confirm that the GTA-PAO framework enhances adaptability and efficiency, making it a strong candidate for practical deployment in next-generation wireless communication systems.
