We use the Hirota bilinear approach to consider physically relevant soliton solutions of the resonant nonlinear Schrödinger equation with nontrivial boundary conditions, recently proposed for describing uniaxial waves in a cold collisionless plasma. By the Madelung representation, the model transforms into the reaction-diffusion analogue of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, for which we study the bilinear representation, the soliton solutions, and their mutual interactions.
