In this paper, we propose an interest-based semantic information transmission framework with rate splitting multiple access (RSMA), to reduce the amount of transmitted data, thereby reducing the burden of data transmission and data processing. In the framework, only the semantic information of interest is transmitted to each user. In the process of semantic information transmission, RSMA is adopted to improve transmission efficiency. In particular, we adopt maximum ratio transmission and zero-forcing for the precoding of the common and private streams, respectively. We also design the quality of experience (QoE) for the system as a performance metric. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework as compared with the benchmark.
