A major challenge that is currently faced in the design of applications for the Internet of Things (IoT) concerns with the optimal use of available energy resources given the battery lifetime of the IoT devices. The challenge is derived from the heterogeneity of the devices, in terms of their hardware and the provided functionalities (e.g data processing/communication). In this paper, we propose a novel method for (i) characterizing the parameters that influence energy consumption and (ii) validating the energy consumption of IoT devices against the systems energy-efficiency requirements (e.g. lifetime). Our approach is based on energy-aware models of the IoT applications design in the BIP (Behavior, Interaction, Priority) component framework. This allows for a detailed formal representation of the systems behavior and its subsequent validation, thus providing feedback for enhancements in the pre-deployment or pre-production stages. We illustrate our approach through a Building Management System, using well-known IoT devices running the Contiki OS that communicate by diverse IoT protocols (e.g. CoAP, MQTT). The results allow to derive tight bounds for the energy consumption in various device functionalities, as well as to validate lifetime requirements through Statistical Model Checking.

To meet the requirements of high energy efficiency (EE) and large system capacity for the fifth-generation (5G) Internet of Things (IoT), the use of massive multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO) technology has been launched in the massive IoT (mIoT) network, where a large number of devices are connected and scheduled simultaneously. This paper considers the energyefficient design of a multi-pair decode-and-forward relay-based IoT network, in which multiple sources simultaneously transmit their information to the corresponding destinations via a relay equipped with a large array. In order to obtain an accurate yet tractable expression of the EE, firstly, a closed-form expression of the EE is derived under an idealized simplifying assumption, in which the location of each device is known by the network. Then, an exact integral-based expression of the EE is derived under the assumption that the devices are randomly scattered following a uniform distribution and transmit power of the relay is equally shared among the destination devices. Furthermore, a simple yet efficient lower bound of the EE is obtained. Based on this, finally, a low-complexity energy-efficient resource allocation strategy of the mIoT network is proposed under the specific qualityof- service (QoS) constraint. The proposed strategy determines the near-optimal number of relay antennas, the near-optimal transmit power at the relay and near-optimal density of active mIoT device pairs in a given coverage area. Numerical results demonstrate the accuracy of the performance analysis and the efficiency of the proposed algorithms.
In this paper, we consider a light fidelity (LiFi)-enabled bidirectional Internet of Things (IoT) communication system, where visible light and infrared light are used in the downlink and uplink, respectively. In order to improve the energy efficiency (EE) of the bidirectional LiFi-IoT system, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) with a quality-of-service (QoS)-guaranteed optimal power allocation (OPA) strategy is applied to maximize the EE of the system. We derive a closed-form OPA set based on the identification of the optimal decoding orders in both downlink and uplink channels, which can enable low-complexity power allocation. Moreover, we propose an adaptive channel and QoS-based user pairing approach by jointly considering users channel gains and QoS requirements. We further analyze the EE of the bidirectional LiFi-IoT system and the user outage probabilities (UOPs) of both downlink and uplink channels of the system. Extensive analytical and simulation results demonstrate the superiority of NOMA with OPA in comparison to orthogonal multiple access (OMA) and NOMA with typical channel-based power allocation strategies. It is also shown that the proposed adaptive channel and QoS-based user pairing approach greatly outperforms individual channel/QoS-based approaches, especially when users have diverse QoS requirements.
Combining intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is an effective solution to enhance communication coverage and energy efficiency. In this paper, we focus on an IRS-assisted NOMA network and propose an energy-efficient algorithm to yield a good tradeoff between the sum-rate maximization and total power consumption minimization. We aim to maximize the system energy efficiency by jointly optimizing the transmit beamforming at the BS and the reflecting beamforming at the IRS. Specifically, the transmit beamforming and the phases of the low-cost passive elements on the IRS are alternatively optimized until the convergence. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm in IRS-NOMA can yield superior performance compared with the conventional OMA-IRS and NOMA with a random phase IRS.
The digital Subscriber Line (DSL) remains an important component of heterogeneous networking, especially in historic city-centers, where using optical fibre is less realistic. Recently, the power consumption has become an important performance metric in telecommunication due to the associated environmental issues. In the recent bonding model, customer sites have been equipped with two/four copper pairs, which may be exploited for designing grouped spatial modulation (SM) aiming for reducing the power consumption and mitigating the stubborn crosstalk in DSL communications. Explicitly, we view the two pair copper pairs equipped for each user as a group and propose an energy efficient transmission scheme based on grouped SM strategy for the upstream DSL systems, which is capable of reducing the power consumption of the upstream transmitters by activating a single copper line of each user. More especially, in order to compensate for the potential bit-rate reduction imposed by reducing the number of activated lines, the proposed scheme implicitly delivers ``virtual bits via activating/deactivating the lines in addition to the classic modulation scheme. This is particularly beneficial in the DSL context, because the cross-talk imposed by activating several lines may swamp the desired signal. Furthermore, a pair of near-optimal soft turbo detection schemes are proposed for exploiting the unique properties of the DSL channel in order to eliminate the error propagation problem of SM detection routinely encountered in wireless channels. Both the attainable energy-efficiency and the achievable Bit Error Ratio (BER) are investigated. Our simulation results demonstrate that the proposed group-based SM is capable of outperforming the vectoring scheme both in terms of its energy efficiency for all the examined loop lengths and transmit powers.
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is considered to be one of the best candidates for future networks due to its ability to serve multiple users using the same resource block. Although early studies have focused on transmission reliability and energy efficiency, recent works are considering cooperation among the nodes. The cooperative NOMA techniques allow the user with a better channel (near user) to act as a relay between the source and the user experiencing poor channel (far user). This paper considers the link security aspect of energy harvesting cooperative NOMA users. In particular, the near user applies the decode-and-forward (DF) protocol for relaying the message of the source node to the far user in the presence of an eavesdropper. Moreover, we consider that all the devices use power-splitting architecture for energy harvesting and information decoding. We derive the analytical expression of intercept probability. Next, we employ deep learning based optimization to find the optimal power allocation factor. The results show the robustness and superiority of deep learning optimization over conventional iterative search algorithm.
