Simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) is an appealing research area because both information and energy can be delivered to wireless devices simultaneously. In this paper, we propose a diplexer-based receiver architecture that can utilizes both the doubling frequency and baseband signals after the mixer. The baseband signals are used for information decoding and the doubling frequency signals are converted to direct current for energy harvesting. We analyze the signal in the receiver and find that the power of the energy harvested is equal to that of information decoded. Therefore, the diplexer can be used as a power splitter with a power splitting factor of 0.5. Specifically, we consider a multiuser multi-input single-output (MISO) system, in which each user is equipped with the newly proposed receiver. The problem is formulated as an optimization problem that minimizes the total transmitted power subject to some constraints on each users quality of service and energy harvesting demand. We show that the problem thus formulated is a non-convex quadratically constrained quadratic program (QCQP), which can be solved by semi-definite relaxation.
