On outage analysis of two user cooperative NOMA with Hybrid SWIPT protocol

In this paper, we have considered a two user cooperative NOMA scheme where the near user is equipped with multiple transmit antenna. The near user harvests energy through hybrid SWIPT protocol, and then it relays the decoded signal of the far user. We use transmit antenna selection scheme. For this system, we derived the expression for the outage probability for the near user and the far user. Also, we plot the effect of different parameters on the outage performance.
