Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the energy efficiency (EE) performance of non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) enabled full-duplex (FD) coordinated direct and relay transmission (CDRT) system (i.e., NOMA-FD-CDRT system). Firstly, we consider a two-user scenario, where the base station (BS) can directly communicate with the near user, while it requires the help of a dedicated FD relay node to communicate with the far user. In the second part, we consider that there are two near users and two far users in the system. To improve the EE, we consider integrating the simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) technique at the FD relay. We formulate an analytical expression for the overall EE of the SWIPT-assisted NOMA-FD-CDRT system. We determine optimal power allocation (OPA) for the downlink users at the BS that maximizes the EE. An iterative algorithm based on Dinkelbach method is proposed to determine the OPA vector. With the help of detailed numerical and simulation investigations, it is demonstrated that the proposed OPA can provide significant enhancement of EE of the considered SWIPT-assisted NOMA-FD-CDRT system.
