In this paper, we investigate for the first time the dynamic power allocation and decoding order at the base station (BS) of two-user uplink (UL) cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access (C-NOMA)-based cellular networks. In doing so, we formulate a joint optimization problem aiming at maximizing the minimum user achievable rate, which is a non-convex optimization problem and hard to be directly solved. To tackle this issue, an iterative algorithm based on successive convex approximation (SCA) is proposed. The numerical results reveal that the proposed scheme provides superior performance in comparison with the traditional UL NOMA. In addition, we demonstrated that in UL C-NOMA, decoding the far NOMA user first at the BS provides the best performance.
