We study wireless power transmission by an energy source to multiple energy harvesting nodes with the aim to maximize the energy efficiency. The source transmits energy to the nodes using one of the available power levels in each time slot and the nodes transmit information back to the energy source using the harvested energy. The source does not have any channel state information and it only knows whether a received codeword from a given node was successfully decoded or not. With this limited information, the source has to learn the optimal power level that maximizes the energy efficiency of the network. We model the problem as a stochastic Multi-Armed Bandits problem and develop an Upper Confidence Bound based algorithm, which learns the optimal transmit power of the energy source that maximizes the energy efficiency. Numerical results validate the performance guarantees of the proposed algorithm and show significant gains compared to the benchmark schemes.

Electronic health monitoring is one of the major applications of wireless body area networks (WBANs) that helps with early detection of any abnormal physiological symptoms. In this paper, we propose and solve an optimization problem that maximizes th
e energy efficiency (EE) of WBAN consisting of sensor nodes (SNs) equipped with energy harvesting capabilities communicating with an aggregator. We exploit the structure of the optimization problem to provide a sub-optimal solution at a lower computational complexity and derive the mathematical expressions of upper and lower bounds of the source rates of the SN. The simulation results reveal that the optimal allocation of the source rate to energy critical SNs improves the system performance of WBAN in terms of energy efficiency during different everyday activities.
There has been a growing interest in developing data-driven, and in particular deep neural network (DNN) based methods for modern communication tasks. For a few popular tasks such as power control, beamforming, and MIMO detection, these methods achie
ve state-of-the-art performance while requiring less computational efforts, less resources for acquiring channel state information (CSI), etc. However, it is often challenging for these approaches to learn in a dynamic environment. This work develops a new approach that enables data-driven methods to continuously learn and optimize resource allocation strategies in a dynamic environment. Specifically, we consider an ``episodically dynamic setting where the environment statistics change in ``episodes, and in each episode the environment is stationary. We propose to build the notion of continual learning (CL) into wireless system design, so that the learning model can incrementally adapt to the new episodes, {it without forgetting} knowledge learned from the previous episodes. Our design is based on a novel bilevel optimization formulation which ensures certain ``fairness across different data samples. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the CL approach by integrating it with two popular DNN based models for power control and beamforming, respectively, and testing using both synthetic and ray-tracing based data sets. These numerical results show that the proposed CL approach is not only able to adapt to the new scenarios quickly and seamlessly, but importantly, it also maintains high performance over the previously encountered scenarios as well.
We propose an algorithm which produces a randomized strategy reaching optimal data propagation in wireless sensor networks (WSN).In [6] and [8], an energy balanced solution is sought using an approximation algorithm. Our algorithm improves by (a) whe
n an energy-balanced solution does not exist, it still finds an optimal solution (whereas previous algorithms did not consider this case and provide no useful solution) (b) instead of being an approximation algorithm, it finds the exact solution in one pass. We also provide a rigorous proof of the optimality of our solution.
Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) allow physical signals to be processed using digital hardware. The power consumed in conversion grows with the sampling rate and quantization resolution, imposing a major challenge in power-limited systems. A commo
n ADC architecture is based on sample-and-hold (S/H) circuits, where the analog signal is being tracked only for a fraction of the sampling period. In this paper, we propose the concept of eSampling ADCs, which harvest energy from the analog signal during the time periods where the signal is not being tracked. This harvested energy can be used to supplement the ADC itself, paving the way to the possibility of zero-power consumption and power-saving ADCs. We analyze the tradeoff between the ability to recover the sampled signal and the energy harvested, and provide guidelines for setting the sampling rate in the light of accuracy and energy constraints. Our analysis indicates that eSampling ADCs operating with up to 12 bits per sample can acquire bandlimited analog signals such that they can be perfectly recovered without requiring power from the external source. Furthermore, our theoretical results reveal that eSampling ADCs can in fact save power by harvesting more energy than they consume. To verify the feasibility of eSampling ADCs, we present a circuit-level design using standard complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) 65 nm technology. An eSampling 8-bit ADC which samples at 40 MHZ is designed on a Cadence Virtuoso platform. Our experimental study involving Nyquist rate sampling of bandlimited signals demonstrates that such ADCs are indeed capable of harvesting more energy than that spent during analog-to-digital conversion, without affecting the accuracy.
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 importa
nt 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.
