Abstract

In this paper, we consider a novel cooperative underlay cognitive radio network based on non-orthogonal multiple access (CR-NOMA) with adaptive relay selection and power allocation. In secondary networks, dedicated relay assistance and user assistance are used to achieve communication between the base station and the far (and near) user. Here, a two-stage adaptive relay selection and power allocation strategy is proposed to maximize the achievable data rate of the far user while ensuring the service quality of near user. Furthermore, the closed-form expressions of outage probability of two secondary users are derived, respectively, under interference power constraints, revealing the impact of transmit power, number of relays, interference threshold and target data rate on system outage probability. Numerical results and simulations validate the advantages of the established cooperation and show that the proposed adaptive relay selection and power allocation strategy has better outage performance.

Highlights

  • Industrial Internet is a significant breakthrough to accelerate the commercial deployment of 5G [1]

  • Classical cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems are generally divided into two categories: one uses the dedicated relay to assist communication between the source and the user, and the other uses the user as a relay [6]

  • In [9], a two-stage max-min relay selection strategy based on the cooperative NOMA system was proposed to ensure the quality of service (QoS) requirements of users

Summary

Introduction

Industrial Internet is a significant breakthrough to accelerate the commercial deployment of 5G [1]. Authors in [10] developed a two-stage relay selection strategy based on decode-and-forward (DF) and amplify-and-forward (AF) relays with adaptive power allocation This scheme obtained full diversity gain, and reduced the outage probability of the cooperative NOMA system. Cooperative CR-NOMA in underlay spectrum sharing mode still has the following problems: (i) most CR-NOMA systems only consider partial interference links; (ii) partial relay selection strategy based on the first hop may not result in the optimal outage performance; (iii) fixed power allocation coefficient cannot guarantee optimal system performance; (iv) the links between near user and relays, near user and far user should be considered, as this can effectively improve communication efficiency.
