In some communication networks, such as passive RFID systems, the energy used to transfer information between a sender and a recipient can be reused for successive communication tasks. In fact, from known results in physics, any system that exchanges information via the transfer of given physical resources, such as radio waves, particles and qubits, can conceivably reuse, at least part, of the received resources. This paper aims at illustrating some of the new challenges that arise in the design of communication networks in which the signals exchanged by the nodes carry both information and energy. To this end, a baseline two-way communication system is considered in which two nodes communicate in an interactive fashion. In the system, a node can either send an on symbol (or 1), which costs one unit of energy, or an off signal (or 0), which does not require any energy expenditure. Upon reception of a 1 signal, the recipient node harvests, with some probability, the energy contained in the signal and stores it for future communication tasks. Inner and outer bounds on the achievable rates are derived. Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategies and illustrate some key design insights.

This study investigates wireless information and energy transfer for dual-hop amplify-and-forward full-duplex relaying systems. By forming energy efficiency (EE) maximization problem into a concave fractional program of transmission power, three relay control schemes are separately designed to enable energy harvesting and full-duplex information relaying. With Rician fading modeled residual self-interference channel, analytical expressions of outage probability and ergodic capacity are presented for the maximum relay, signal-to-interference-plus-noise-ratio (SINR) relay, and target relay. It has shown that EE maximization problem of the maximum relay is concave for time switching factor, so that bisection method has been applied to obtain the optimized value. By incorporating instantaneous channel information, the SINR relay with collateral time switching factor achieves an improved EE over the maximum relay in delay-limited and delay-tolerant transmissions. Without requiring channel information for the second-hop, the target relay ensures a competitive performance for outage probability, ergodic capacity, and EE. Comparing to the direct source-destination transmission, numerical results show that the proposed relaying scheme is beneficial in achieving a comparable EE for low-rate delay-limited transmission.
To realize cooperative computation and communication in a relay mobile edge computing system, we develop a hybrid relay forward protocol, where we seek to balance the execution delay and network energy consumption. The problem is formulated as a nondifferentible optimization problem which is nonconvex with highly coupled constraints. By exploiting the problem structure, we propose a lightweight algorithm based on inexact block coordinate descent method. Our results show that the proposed algorithm exhibits much faster convergence as compared with the popular concave-convex procedure based algorithm, while achieving good performance.
A communication setup is considered where a transmitter wishes to convey a message to a receiver and simultaneously estimate the state of that receiver through a common waveform. The state is estimated at the transmitter by means of generalized feedback, i.e., a strictly causal channel output, and the known waveform. The scenario at hand is motivated by joint radar and communication, which aims to co-design radar sensing and communication over shared spectrum and hardware. For the case of memoryless single receiver channels with i.i.d. time-varying state sequences, we fully characterize the capacity-distortion tradeoff, defined as the largest achievable rate below which a message can be conveyed reliably while satisfying some distortion constraints on state sensing. We propose a numerical method to compute the optimal input that achieves the capacity-distortion tradeoff. Then, we address memoryless state-dependent broadcast channels (BCs). For physically degraded BCs with i.i.d. time-varying state sequences, we characterize the capacity-distortion tradeoff region as a rather straightforward extension of single receiver channels. For general BCs, we provide inner and outer bounds on the capacity-distortion region, as well as a sufficient condition when this capacity-distortion region is equal to the product of the capacity region and the set of achievable distortions. A number of illustrative examples demonstrates that the optimal co-design schemes outperform conventional schemes that split the resources between sensing and communication.

In this work, a strategy to estimate the information transfer between the elements of a complex system, from the time series associated to the evolution of this elements, is presented. By using the nearest neighbors of each state, the local approaches of the deterministic dynamical rule generating the data and the probability density functions, both marginals and conditionals, necessaries to calculate some measures of information transfer, are estimated. The performance of the method using numerically simulated data and real signals is exposed.

Powering mobiles using microwave emph{power transfer} (PT) avoids the inconvenience of battery recharging by cables and ensures uninterrupted mobile operation. The integration of PT and emph{information transfer} (IT) allows wireless PT to be realized by building on the existing infrastructure for IT and also leads to compact mobile designs. As a result, emph{simultaneous wireless information and power transfer} (SWIPT) has emerged to be an active research topic that is also the theme of this paper. In this paper, a practical SWIPT system is considered where two multi-antenna stations perform separate PT and IT to a multi-antenna mobile to accommodate their difference in ranges. The mobile dynamically assigns each antenna for either PT or IT. The antenna partitioning results in a tradeoff between the MIMO IT channel capacity and the PT efficiency. The optimal partitioning for maximizing the IT rate under a PT constraint is a NP-hard integer program, and the paper proposes solving it via efficient greedy algorithms with guaranteed performance. To this end, the antenna-partitioning problem is proved to be one that optimizes a sub-modular function over a matroid constraint. This structure allows the application of two well-known greedy algorithms that yield solutions no smaller than the optimal one scaled by factors $(1-1/e)$ and 1/2, respectively.
