Wireless energy transfer (WET) is a green enabler of low-power Internet of Things (IoT). Therein, traditional optimization schemes relying on full channel state information (CSI) are often too costly to implement due to excessive energy consumption and high processing complexity. This letter proposes a simple, yet effective, energy beamforming scheme that allows a multi-antenna power beacon (PB) to fairly power a set of IoT devices by only relying on the first-order statistics of the channels. In addition to low complexity, the proposed scheme performs favorably as compared to benchmarking schemes and its performance improves as the number of PBs antennas increases. Finally, it is shown that further performance improvement can be achieved through proper angular rotations of the PB.

This paper introduces a novel approach of utilizing the reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) for joint data modulation and signal beamforming in a multi-user downlink cellular network by leveraging the idea of backscatter communication. We presen
t a general framework in which the RIS, referred to as modulating intelligent surface (MIS) in this paper, is used to: i) beamform the signals for a set of users whose data modulation is already performed by the base station (BS), and at the same time, ii) embed the data of a different set of users by passively modulating the deliberately sent carrier signals from the BS to the RIS. To maximize each users spectral efficiency, a joint non-convex optimization problem is formulated under the sum minimum mean-square error (MMSE) criterion. Alternating optimization is used to divide the original joint problem into two tasks of: i) separately optimizing the MIS phase-shifts for passive beamforming along with data embedding for the BS- and MIS-served users, respectively, and ii) jointly optimizing the active precoder and the receive scaling factor for the BS- and MIS-served users, respectively. While the solution to the latter joint problem is found in closed-form using traditional optimization techniques, the optimal phase-shifts at the MIS are obtained by deriving the appropriate optimization-oriented vector approximate message passing (OOVAMP) algorithm. Moreover, the original joint problem is solved under both ideal and practical constraints on the MIS phase shifts, namely, the unimodular constraint and assuming each MIS element to be terminated by a variable reactive load. The proposed MIS-assisted scheme is compared against state-of-the-art RIS-assisted wireless communication schemes and simulation results reveal that it brings substantial improvements in terms of system throughput while supporting a much higher number of users.
Radio frequency (RF) wireless energy transfer (WET) is a key technology that may allow seamlessly powering future massive low-energy Internet of Things (IoT) networks. To enable efficient massive WET, channel state information (CSI)-limited/free mult
i-antenna transmit schemes have been recently proposed in the literature. The idea is to reduce/null the energy costs to be paid by energy harvesting (EH) IoT nodes from participating in large-scale time/power-consuming CSI training, but still enable some transmit spatial gains. In this paper, we take another step forward by proposing a novel CSI-free rotary antenna beamforming (RAB) WET scheme that outperforms all state-of-the-art CSI-free schemes in a scenario where a power beacon (PB) equipped with a uniform linear array (ULA) powers a large set of surrounding EH IoT devices. RAB uses a properly designed CSI-free beamformer combined with a continuous or periodic rotation of the ULA at the PB to provide average EH gains that scale as $0.85sqrt{M}$, where $M$ is the number of PBs antenna elements. Moreover, a rotation-specific power control mechanism was proposed to i) fairly optimize the WET process if devices positioning information is available, and/or ii) to avoid hazards to human health in terms of specific absorption rate (SAR). We show that RAB performance even approaches quickly (or surpasses, for scenarios with sufficiently large number of EH devices, or when using the proposed power control) the performance of a traditional full-CSI based transmit scheme, and it is also less sensitive to SAR constraints. Finally, we discuss important practicalities related to RAB such as its robustness against non line-of-sight conditions compared to other CSI-free WET schemes, and its generalizability to scenarios where the PB uses other than a ULA topology.
In this paper, a novel intelligent reflecting surface (IRS)-assisted wireless powered communication network (WPCN) architecture is proposed for low-power Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices, where the IRS is exploited to improve the performance of WPCN
under imperfect channel state information (CSI). We formulate a hybrid access point (HAP) transmission energy minimization problem by a joint design of time allocation, HAP energy beamforming, receiving beamforming, user transmit power allocation, IRS energy reflection coefficient and information reflection coefficient under the imperfect CSI and non-linear energy harvesting model. Due to the high coupling of optimization variables, this problem is a non-convex optimization problem, which is difficult to solve directly. In order to solve the above-mentioned challenging problems, the alternating optimization (AO) is applied to decouple the optimization variables to solve the problem. Specifically, through AO, time allocation, HAP energy beamforming, receiving beamforming, user transmit power allocation, IRS energy reflection coefficient and information reflection coefficient are divided into three sub-problems to be solved alternately. The difference-of-convex (DC) programming is applied to solve the non-convex rank-one constraint in solving the IRS energy reflection coefficient and information reflection coefficient. Numerical simulations verify the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm in reducing HAP transmission energy compared to other benchmarks.
Intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs) are revolutionary enablers for next-generation wireless communication networks, with the ability to customize the radio propagation environment. To fully exploit the potential of IRS-assisted wireless systems, r
eflective elements have to be jointly optimized with conventional communication techniques. However, the resulting optimization problems pose significant algorithmic challenges, mainly due to the large-scale non-convex constraints induced by the passive hardware implementations. In this paper, we propose a low-complexity algorithmic framework incorporating alternating optimization and gradient-based methods for large-scale IRS-assisted wireless systems. The proposed algorithm provably converges to a stationary point of the optimization problem. Extensive simulation results demonstrate that the proposed framework provides significant speedups compared with existing algorithms, while achieving a comparable or better performance.
This paper presents the first Network-Coded Multiple Access (NCMA) system with multiple users adopting different signal modulations, referred to as rate-diverse NCMA. A distinguishing feature of NCMA is the joint use of physical-layer network coding
(PNC) and multiuser decoding (MUD) to boost throughput of multipacket reception systems. In previous NCMA systems, users adopt the same modulation regardless of their individual channel conditions. This leads to suboptimal throughput for many practical scenarios, especially when different users have widely varying channel conditions. A rate-diverse NCMA system allows different users to use modulations that are commensurate with their channel conditions. A key challenge is the design of the PNC mapping and decoding mechanisms in NCMA when different users adopt different modulations. While there have been past work on non-channel-coded rate-diverse PNC, this paper is the first attempt to design channel-coded rate-diverse PNC to ensure the reliability of the overall NCMA system. Specifically, we put forth a symbol-splitting channel coding and modulation design so that PNC/NCMA can work over different modulations. We implemented our rate-diverse NCMA system on software-defined radios. Experimental results show that the throughput of rate-diverse NCMA can outperform the state-of-the-art rate-homogeneous NCMA by 80%. Overall, the introduction of rate diversity significantly boosts the NCMA system throughput in practical scenarios.
