Assuming non-ideal circuit power consumption at the energy harvesting (EH) nodes, we propose two practical protocols that optimize the performance of the harvest-then-transmit wireless powered communication networks (WPCNs) under two different objectives: (1) proportional fair (PF) resource allocation, and (2) sum rate maximization. These objectives lead to optimal allocations for the transmit power by the base station (BS), which broadcasts RF radiation over the downlink, and optimal durations of the EH phase and the uplink information transmission phases within the dynamic time-division multiple access (TDMA) frame. Compared to the max-sum-rate protocol, the PF protocol attains a higher level of system fairness at the expense of the sum rate degradation. The PF protocol is advantageous over the max-sum-rate protocol in terms of system fairness regardless of the circuit power consumption, whereas the uplink sum rates of both protocols converge when this power consumption increases.

The rapid growth of the so-called Internet of Things is expected to significantly expand and support the deployment of resource-limited devices. Therefore, intelligent scheduling protocols and technologies such as wireless power transfer, are important for the efficient implementation of these massive low-powered networks. This paper studies the performance of a wireless powered communication network, where multiple batteryless devices harvest radio-frequency from a dedicated transmitter in order to communicate with a common information receiver (IR). We investigate several novel selection schemes, corresponding to different channel state information requirements and implementation complexities. In particular, each scheme schedules the $k$-th best device based on: a) the end-to-end (e2e) signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), b) the energy harvested at the devices, c) the uplink transmission to the IR, and d) the conventional/legacy max-min selection policy. We consider a non-linear energy harvesting (EH) model and derive analytical expressions for the outage probability of each selection scheme by using tools from high order statistics. %Our results show that, the performance of all the proposed schemes converges to an error floor due to the saturation effects of the considered EH model. Moreover, an asymptotic scenario in terms of the number of devices is considered and, by applying extreme value theory, the systems performance is evaluated. We derive a complete analytical framework that provides useful insights for the design and realization of such networks.
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is a candidate multiple access scheme in 5G systems for the simultaneous access of tremendous number of wireless nodes. On the other hand, RF-enabled wireless energy harvesting is a promising technology for self-sustainable wireless nodes. In this paper, we consider a NOMA system where the near user harvests energy from the strong radio signal to power-on the information decoder. A generalized energy harvesting scheme is proposed by combining the conventional time switching and power splitting scheme. The achievable rate region of the proposed scheme is characterized under both constant and dynamic decoding power consumption models. If the decoding power is constant, the achievable rate region can be found by solving two convex optimization subproblems, and the regions for two special cases: time switching and power splitting, are characterized in closed-form. If the decoding power is proportional to data rate, the achievable rate region can be found by exhaustive search algorithm. Numerical results show that the achievable rate region of the proposed generalized scheme is larger than those of time switching scheme and power splitting scheme, and rate-dependent decoder design helps to enlarge the achievable rate region.
We consider a new approach to power control in decentralized wireless networks, termed fractional power control (FPC). Transmission power is chosen as the current channel quality raised to an exponent -s, where s is a constant between 0 and 1. The choices s = 1 and s = 0 correspond to the familiar cases of channel inversion and constant power transmission, respectively. Choosing s in (0,1) allows all intermediate policies between these two extremes to be evaluated, and we see that usually neither extreme is ideal. We derive closed-form approximations for the outage probability relative to a target SINR in a decentralized (ad hoc or unlicensed) network as well as for the resulting transmission capacity, which is the number of users/m^2 that can achieve this SINR on average. Using these approximations, which are quite accurate over typical system parameter values, we prove that using an exponent of 1/2 minimizes the outage probability, meaning that the inverse square root of the channel strength is a sensible transmit power scaling for networks with a relatively low density of interferers. We also show numerically that this choice of s is robust to a wide range of variations in the network parameters. Intuitively, s=1/2 balances between helping disadvantaged users while making sure they do not flood the network with interference.
Wireless power transfer (WPT) is a viable source of energy for wirelessly powered communication networks (WPCNs). In this paper, we first consider WPT from an energy access point (E-AP) to multiple energy receivers (E-Rs) to obtain the optimal policy that maximizes the WPT efficiency. For this purpose, we formulate the problem of maximizing the total average received power of the E-Rs subject to the average and peak power level constraints of the E-AP. The formulated problem is a non-convex stochastic optimization problem. Using some stochastic optimization techniques, we tackle the challenges of this problem and derive a closed-form expression for the optimal solution, which requires the explicit knowledge of the distribution of channel state information (CSI) in the network. We then propose a near-optimal algorithm that does not require any explicit knowledge of the CSI distribution and prove that the proposed algorithm attains a near-optimal solution within a guaranteed gap to the optimal solution. We next consider fairness among the E-Rs and propose a quality of service (QoS) aware fair policy that maximizes a generic network utility function while guaranteeing the required QoS of each E-R. Finally, we study a practical wirelessly powered communication scenario in which the E-Rs utilize their energy harvested through WPT to transmit information to the E-AP. We optimize the received information at the E-AP under its average and peak transmission power constraints and the fairness constraints of the E-Rs. Numerical results show the significant performance of our proposed solutions compared to the state-of-the-art baselines.
We analyze a wireless communication system with finite block length and finite battery energy, under quasi-static Nakagami-m fading. Wireless energy transfer is carried out in the downlink while information transfer occurs in the uplink. Transmission strategies for scenarios with/without energy accumulation between transmission rounds are characterized in terms of error probability and energy consumption. A power control protocol for the energy accumulation scenario is proposed and results show the enormous impact on improving the system performance, in terms of error probability and energy consumption. The numerical results corroborate the existence and uniqueness of an optimum target error probability, while showing that a relatively small battery could be a limiting factor for some setups, specially when using the energy accumulation strategy.
