Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the performance of relay-assisted (RA) non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) power line communications (PLC) systems. For a setup of three PLC modems, namely, a source (S), relay (R), and a destination (D), we present closed-form expressions for the outage probabilities at R and D. We consider maximal ratio combining at D and decode-and-forward protocol at R. Moreover, we formulate an optimization problem and present a closed-form solution for the optimal power allocation coefficients at S. Furthermore, we show that numerical and Monte Carlo simulation results corroborate the derived analytic expressions.
