Performance Analysis of Full-Duplex NOMA Assisted Satellite-Terrestrial Systems with Hardware Impairments and Imperfect CSI

Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the satellite-terrestrial system employing non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) scheme, where a full-duplex (FD) decode-and-forward (DF) relaying assists the user in weak channel condition. The effects of hardware impairments, imperfect channel state information (CSI) and imperfect interference cancellation on system performance are considered. For this setting, we derive the closed-form expressions of the exact and asymptotic outage probabilities as well as delay-limited sum throughput for NOMA users. Numerical results are provided to demonstrate the correctness of theoretical analysis and the superiority of adopting FD NOMA scheme in the proposed system.
