Abstract
This paper investigates the performance of cooperative networks based on non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) with multiple full-duplex decode-and-forward relays. Taking into account rate fairness between the users and assuming imperfect successive interference cancellation (SIC), the problem is formulated so that power allocation is performed adaptively by the multiple relays in order to maximize the minimum users’ achievable rate. We demonstrate that the proposed optimization problem is convex and a closed-form expression for the power allocation factor is derived. The attained results show that the proposed scheme achieves satisfactory results in terms of achievable rate, fairness, and outage probability when compared to other adaptive power allocation strategies.
