In this work, we derive optimal transmission policies in an energy harvesting status update system. The system monitors a stochastic process which can be either in a normal or in an alarm state of operation. We capture the freshness of status updates for each state of the stochastic process by introducing two Age of Information (AoI) variables and extend the definition of AoI to account for the state changes of the stochastic process. We formulate the problem at hand as a Markov Decision Process which, under the assumption that the demand for status updates is higher when the stochastic process is in the alarm state, utilizes a transition cost function that applies linear and non-linear penalties based on AoI and the state of the stochastic process. Finally, we evaluate numerically the derived policies and illustrate their effectiveness for reserving energy in anticipation of future alarm states.

Motivated by damage due to heating in sensor operation, we consider the throughput optimal offline data scheduling problem in an energy harvesting transmitter such that the resulting temperature increase remains below a critical level. We model the t
emperature dynamics of the transmitter as a linear system and determine the optimal transmit power policy under such temperature constraints as well as energy harvesting constraints over an AWGN channel. We first derive the structural properties of the solution for the general case with multiple energy arrivals. We show that the optimal power policy is piecewise monotone decreasing with possible jumps at the energy harvesting instants. We derive analytical expressions for the optimal solution in the single energy arrival case. We show that, in the single energy arrival case, the optimal power is monotone decreasing, the resulting temperature is monotone increasing, and both remain constant after the temperature hits the critical level. We then generalize the solution for the multiple energy arrival case.
We consider an energy harvesting source equipped with a finite battery, which needs to send timely status updates to a remote destination. The timeliness of status updates is measured by a non-decreasing penalty function of the Age of Information (Ao
I). The problem is to find a policy for generating updates that achieves the lowest possible time-average expected age penalty among all online policies. We prove that one optimal solution of this problem is a monotone threshold policy, which satisfies (i) each new update is sent out only when the age is higher than a threshold and (ii) the threshold is a non-increasing function of the instantaneous battery level. Let $tau_B$ denote the optimal threshold corresponding to the full battery level $B$, and $p(cdot)$ denote the age-penalty function, then we can show that $p(tau_B)$ is equal to the optimum objective value, i.e., the minimum achievable time-average expected age penalty. These structural properties are used to develop an algorithm to compute the optimal thresholds. Our numerical analysis indicates that the improvement in average age with added battery capacity is largest at small battery sizes; specifically, more than half the total possible reduction in age is attained when battery storage increases from one transmissions worth of energy to two. This encourages further study of status update policies for sensors with small battery storage.
Age of Information (AoI) is a newly appeared concept and metric to characterize the freshness of data. In this work, we study the delay and AoI in a multiple access channel (MAC) with two source nodes transmitting different types of data to a common
destination. The first node is grid-connected and its data packets arrive in a bursty manner, and at each time slot it transmits one packet with some probability. Another energy harvesting (EH) sensor node generates a new status update with a certain probability whenever it is charged. We derive the delay of the grid-connected node and the AoI of the EH sensor as functions of different parameters in the system. The results show that the mutual interference has a non-trivial impact on the delay and age performance of the two nodes.
The problem of finding decentralized transmission policies in a wireless communication network with energy harvesting constraints is formulated and solved using the decentralized Markov decision process framework. The proposed policy defines the tran
smission probabilities of all devices so as to correctly balance the collision probabilities with the energy constraints. After an initial coordination phase, in which the network parameters are initialized for all devices, every node proceeds in a fully decentralized fashion. We numerically show that, because of the harvesting, a fully orthogonal scheme (e.g., TDMA-like) is sub-optimal in this scenario, and that the optimal trade-off lies between an orthogonal and a completely symmetric system.
A status updating system is considered in which data from multiple sources are sampled by an energy harvesting sensor and transmitted to a remote destination through an erasure channel. The goal is to deliver status updates of all sources in a timely
manner, such that the cumulative long-term average age-of-information (AoI) is minimized. The AoI for each source is defined as the time elapsed since the generation time of the latest successful status update received at the destination from that source. Transmissions are subject to energy availability, which arrives in units according to a Poisson process, with each energy unit capable of carrying out one transmission from only one source. The sensor is equipped with a unit-sized battery to save the incoming energy. A scheduling policy is designed in order to determine which source is sampled using the available energy. The problem is studied in two main settings: no erasure status feedback, and perfect instantaneous feedback.
