The non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) scheme realizes the transmission of multiple user signals at the same time and frequency resource block through power domain multiplexing, which improves the system transmission rate and user fairness. In this paper, we propose a joint relay-and-antenna selection scheme based on the cognitive radio scenario. This scheme can achieve the maximum communication rate of the secondary user when the primary user maintains the optimal outage performance. In the considered system both terrestrial relays and users are deployed with multi-antenna configurations and the terrestrial relays adopt the decode-and-forward (DF) strategy to achieve communication between satellites and users. Then, we derive the exact outage probability expression of each user in the system and the asymptotic probability expression under high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Numeric results demonstrate that increasing the number of relays and antennas on the terrestrial nodes can both improve system outage performance. Moreover, the number of relays imposes a more obvious effect on the achievable system performance.

We study the performance of the three-node relay network. Three combining methods for the Amplify-and-Forward (AF) protocol and the Decode-and-Forward (DF) protocol are compared. Simulations indicate that the AF protocol is better than DF under all these three combining methods. To combine the incoming signals the channel quality should be estimated as accuracy as possible, more estimation accuracy requires more resource. A very simple combining method can obtain the performance comparative with optimal combining methods approximately. At the same time, all three combining methods for both diversity protocols can achieve the maximum diversity order.

In this paper, a bidirectional full-duplex amplify- and-forward (AF) relay network with multiple antennas at source nodes is proposed. Assuming that the channel state information is known at the source nodes, transmit antenna selection and maximal ratio combining (MRC) are employed when source nodes transmit information to the relay node and receive information from the relay node respectively, in order to improve the overall signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR). Analytical expressions are derived for tight upper bound SINR at the relay node and source nodes upon reception. Further, losed form expressions are also derived for end-to-end outage probability of the proposed bidirectional full-duplex AF relay network in the Nakagami-m fading channel environment. Although self-interference at the relay node limits the performance of the full-duplex network, the outage performance of the proposed network is better than that of conventional bidirectional full-duplex and half-duplex AF relay networks, due to the selection diversity gain in TAS and diversity and array gain in MRC.
