  A cooperative full duplex (FD) non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) scheme
over Rician fading channels is considered. To be practical, imperfect
successive interference cancellation (ipSIC) and residual hardware impairments
(RHIs) at transceivers are taken into account. To evaluate the performance of
the considered system, the analytical approximate expressions for the outage
probability (OP) and the ergodic rate (ER) of the considered system are
derived, and the asymptotic performance is also explored. Simulation results
manifest that the FD cooperative NOMA can improve the ergodic sum rate (ESR) of
the system compared to the half duplex (HD) mode.
