Summary :

This paper investigates the sum rate (SR) maximization problem for downlink cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access (C-NOMA) systems with hardware impairments (HIs). The source node communicates with users via a half-duplex amplified-and-forward (HD-AF) relay with HIs. First, we derive the SR expression of the systems under HIs. Then, SR maximization problem is formulated under maximum power of the source, relay, and the minimum rate constraint of each user. As the original SR maximization problem is a non-convex problem, it is difficult to find the optimal resource allocation directly by tractional convex optimization method. We use variable substitution method to convert the non-convex SR maximization problem to an equivalent convex optimization problem. Finally, a joint power and rate allocation based on interior point method is proposed to maximize the SR of the systems. Simulation results show that the algorithm can improve the SR of the C-NOMA compared with the cooperative orthogonal multiple access (C-OMA) scheme.
