Abstract
This paper proposes a new sum-rate maximization based relay selection (RS) scheme for cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) networks over Nakagami-$m$ fading, where one base station communicates with two mobile users by means of multiple relays. The outage probability of the proposed scheme is derived in a closed-form expression, and the diversity order is also obtained. Simulation results are shown to compare the outage performance of the proposed scheme with that of the existing RS schemes.
