Chapter 10 - Transmit beamforming for simultaneous wireless information and power transfer

In cognitive Wireless Radio networks, information transfer and power transfer are given special consideration in next-generation wireless networking devices like Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer. The benefit of integrating cognitive network concepts is that it provides greater efficiency on energy and spectrum to address interference, fading, and path loss, among many other issues, in certain critical applications. Energy harvesting (EH) is a secure and cost-effective method of powering up cluster heads when needed. The proposed method considers two phases. The first phase is energy harvesting of SUs transferred in power signals send by the hybrid access point during wireless power transfer (WPT). While in the second phrase, Wireless Information Transfer (WIT) phase, the captured energy is used while simultaneously acquiring transmission possibilities. In addition, a fuzzy-based cluster using a greedy algorithm is used to reduce PU secrecy outages and to provide the best ideal result. These may be identified using a convolutional neural network (CNN) to detect and classify distinct attack types. This paper presents an efficient resource allocation using fuzzy logic-based clustering and greedy algorithms, which can provide better performance than other technologies. The subsystem for cognitive radio networks is configured, and the primary nodes’ secrecy is maintained and free of three attacks, and the results are simulated using MATLAB tools.

Realising both wireless information transfer (WIT) and wireless power transfer (WPT) in the same RF spectral band has imposed great challenges on the system design but the spectral efficiency can be substantially improved, which triggers the significant research interest in the simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT). In order to fully exploit the limited spectral resources, a non-orthogonal-multiple-access (NOMA) technique aided SWIPT system is considered for simultaneously realising both of WIT and WPT, which consists of a single access point (AP), a single WPT user and a pair of WIT users. The AP delivers the requested information to the pair of WIT users by adopting the NOMA technique. In order to maximise the amount of energy received by the WPT user, a novel constellation rotation based modulation scheme is proposed for constructively combining the symbols requested by the pair of the WIT users by optimising the constellation rotation angle. By considering the sensitivity of the energy harvester, the simulation results demonstrate that our modulation scheme is capable of efficiently increasing the energy harvested by the WPT user without incurring additional symbol detection errors.

Antenna beamforming for Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer (SWIPT) and Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) in an indoor 6G communication system is presented in this paper. The objective function is to maximize the total harvesting power for the SWIPT and WPT nodes with the constraints of the bit error rate and minimum harvesting power. In the study, the power-splitting ratio between harvesting power and decoding information can be adjusted for the SWIPT node. Due to the non-convex problem, we use Self-Adaptive Dynamic Differential Evolution (SADDE) to optimize the designed multi-objective function. We use a symmetric antenna array to study three situations of distance—closer, farther, and similar—between the transmitting antenna and the individual SWIPT and WPT nodes in this paper. Experimental results show that the overall harvesting efficiency is improved, especially in the case of SWIPT nodes closer to the transmitter. The total harvesting power can be improved by 86.7% in the total short-distance case, and by 7.87% in the total long-distance case.

Far-field wireless power transfer (WPT) and simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) have become increasingly important in radio frequency (RF) and communication communities recently. The problem of modulation design for SWIPT has however been scarcely addressed. In this paper, a modulation scheme based on asymmetric phase-shift keying (PSK) is considered, which improves the SWIPT rate-energy tradeoff region significantly. The nonlinear rectifier model, which accurately models the energy harvester, is adopted for evaluating the output direct current (DC) power at the receiver. The harvested DC power is maximized under an average power constraint at the transmitter and a constraint on the rate of information transmitted via a multi-carrier signal over a flat fading channel. As a consequence of the rectifier nonlinearity, this work highlights that asymmetric PSK modulation provides benefits over conventional symmetric PSK modulation in SWIPT and opens the door to systematic modulation design tailored for SWIPT.

This work presents some recent solutions that exploit the wireless power transfer (WPT) technology for energizing moving vehicles and machinery tools. Such technology is currently experiencing unprecedented interests in non-traditional RF/microwave sectors fields, such the industrial automation and the railway transportation safety. Near-field electromagnetic coupling solutions are presented showing that, in order to obtain efficient performances for broad ranges of operating conditions, the nonlinear electromagnetic co-design of the entire WPT system, from the energy source to the receiver load, needs to be carried out. This technology can be combined with wireless data transfer, thus realizing integrated systems able to simultaneously control the energy transfer and the transmission of data. The adopted operating frequencies are in the MHz range, which is only recently considered for this kind of applications. In particular this work focuses on three different systems: the first one demonstrates the constant powering of “on the move” industrial charts at 6.78 MHz, regardless of the relative position of the transmitter and the receiver sub-systems; the second one presents a novel design of a balise transportation system adopting a high efficiency GaN-based transmitter designed to keep its performance over a wide range of loading conditions; the last one consists of the simultaneous wireless power and data transfer, to a rotating machinery tool, automatically controlled by the powering system based on the coexistence of frequency-diverse inductive and capacitive couplings.

In this paper, we provide a comprehensive literature survey on simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) in multi-antenna systems. We first review recent contributions on the theory analysis of SWIPT from information theoretic standpoint and introduce the tradeoff between information transfer and power transfer under various settings. Then, we focus on the utilization of multi-antenna techniques to solve existing problems of SWIPT. Contributions on the implementation aspects of multi-antenna SWIPT are summarized. The performance of SWIPT is evaluated by different metrics, therefore, we review the works on dynamic SWIPT optimization based on objective function using multi-antenna techniques. In addition, the implementation of SWIPT brings up secure issue. Thus, we summarize recent works on secure SWIPT. Finally, we present researches combining SWIPT with state-of-the-art techniques due to potential application in different scenarios.

Simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) formed by the mixture of communication technology and power transmission is one of the research focuses in the field of wireless communication. This paper introduces the architecture of the SWIPT system, analyzes the key technologies, presents a 2.45GHz microwave rectifier circuit at low input power for energy harvesting. Finally, with the use of Ultra-Narrow Band (UNB) as the modulation scheme, the practical SWIPT receiver system is modeled and simulated. The results provide that using UNB signal as the modulation scheme is a new feasible way for SWIPT.

In this paper, we focus on optimization of simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) in uplink cloud radio access network (C-RAN). The key idea is to design transceiver architecture and implement the SWIPT strategy at remote radio heads (RRHs). The minimum mean-square-error (MMSE) is considered as the performance metrics with transmit power constraint and energy constraint. Toward the goal of MMSE, the precoders and the detectors are iteratively updated in proposed scheme. However, because of the energy constraint, the precoding optimization problem with a specified detection matrix become non-convex. To solve this problem, a new precoding design based on the Lagrangian dual relaxation (LDR) is developed. Meanwhile, conditions to make sure the optimization problem has its physical interpretation and LDR become convex are determined. Finally, simulation results demonstrate that the proposed transceiver design can significantly improve the system performance.

This paper proposes a robust simultaneous wireless power and information transfer (SWPIT) system with constant current (CC) or constant voltage (CV) output. This system achieves stable output and high-misalignment-tolerant wireless charging under variable transfer distance and load, even when the system is detuned. First, the frequency and output characteristics are analyzed based on the autonomous circuit principle and coupled mode theory. A method of phase synchronization and eigenfrequency tracking is presented to reduce the fluctuation of output. Second, benefiting from the frequency characteristics of this autonomous system, a low-delay wireless information transfer based on the parity-time symmetry is realized. Moreover, a closed-loop control strategy is designed for CC or CV output. Finally, an experimental prototype is established. The experimental results show that the maximum change rate of output is 2.6% in CC mode and 1.2% in CV mode, within 40% misalignment distance of the largest size in the Y-direction and 10.5% detuning rate.

SummaryRadio frequency (RF) energy harvesting (EH) for wireless networks provides a green and sustainable solution and offers an energy‐efficient system. It is most crucial for fulfilling the power requirement of the rising number of low‐powered wireless devices and achieving sustainable development goals (SDG). It ensures the longevity of devices in the network even at inaccessible remote locations. Such RF‐EH‐based mechanisms are utilized in simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) systems. Most of the prevailing studies have analyzed the SWIPT system over conventional fading channels. However, due to the higher rate requirements, the current paradigm shift in frequency usage shifts towards the GHz band, which also offers better EH efficiency. Hence, SWIPT system analysis over the channel that is suitable for mm‐wave signal propagation is dealt with in this study. This study evaluates SWIPT performance over fluctuating two‐ray (FTR) fading channel that is crucial since it provides the best fit for characterizing GHz signal and also provides a generalized framework for most of the conventional fading channels. This study presents new analytical results assuming time switch relaying (TSR) protocol with (i) amplify and forward (AF) and (ii) decode and forward (DF) relaying. The results are also analyzed for H branches maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity technique and evaluated the diversity gain for both AF and DF relays. The effectiveness of the system is measured in terms of system outage probability (SOP) to envisage the reliability of SWIPT based system. This work presents the simulation and modeling of such system and its obtained results are validated by Monte Carlo simulations for their accuracy.

Simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) augments a wireless device's capability to transmit data by adding a harvesting component to the standard information processing receiver. With SWIPT, both information processing and energy scavenging are combined to allow a SWIPT device to become its own recurrent power source. This paper proposes, analyzes, and compares the functionality of a novel selective orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) receiver architecture and evaluates the rate-energy (R-E) tradeoff of the system. Additionally, the feasibility of harvesting sufficient energy to power the OFDM processing portion of the receiver is examined. To facilitate the evaluation, Monte Carlo simulations are run presenting system level R-E tradeoff and feasibility performance. Selective OFDM transmission is found to provide improved energy harvesting and sustainability over conventional OFDM transmission.

In 5G wireless networks, the system capacity and the number of users will be significantly increased. However, the energy consumed for the communication will also be increased, which results in low system energy efficiency. Simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) can enable the user to perform energy harvesting from the radio-frequency signals parallel with the information decoding, which can effectively improve the system energy efficiency. In this paper, we study the energy efficiency optimization problem for the orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing-based 5G wireless networks with SWIPT, in which the subcarrier and power allocation are jointly optimized to maximize the system energy efficiency for single user and multiple user cases. For those two cases, through mathematical transforming, we use the Dinkelbach iterative method and the Lagrange dual method to solve the non-convex energy efficiency optimization problem. Simulation results show that compared with other algorithms, our proposed algorithm can achieve higher energy efficiency.

In this paper, we investigate the performance of cache-assisted simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) cooperative systems, in which one source communicates with one destination via the aid of multiple relays. In order to prolong the relays’ serving time, the relays are assumed to be equipped with a cache memory and energy harvesting (EH) capability. Based on the time-splitting mechanism, we analyze the effect of caching on the system performance in terms of the serving throughput and the stored energy at the relay. In particular, two optimization problems are formulated to maximize the relay-destination throughput and the energy stored at the relay subject to some quality-of-service (QoS) constraints, respectively. By using the KKT conditions and with the help of the Lambert function, closed-form solutions are obtained for the two formulated problems. In order to further improve the performance, a relay selection policy is introduced to select the best relay based on either the maximum throughput between the relays’ and destination link or maximum stored energy at the relay, for conveying information to the destination. Numerical results reveal significant benefits of incorporating caching capabilities to SWIPT systems, in terms of improved serving time, throughput, and EH performance at the relays.
