Optimal time sharing in underlay cognitive radio systems with RF energy harvesting
Due to the fundamental tradeoffs, achieving spectrum efficiency and energy
efficiency are two contending design challenges for the future wireless
networks. However, applying radio-frequency (RF) energy harvesting (EH) in a
cognitive radio system could potentially circumvent this tradeoff, resulting in
a secondary system with limitless power supply and meaningful achievable
information rates. This paper proposes an online solution for the optimal time
allocation (time sharing) between the EH phase and the information transmission
(IT) phase in an underlay cognitive radio system, which harvests the RF energy
originating from the primary system. The proposed online solution maximizes the
average achievable rate of the cognitive radio system, subject to the
-percentile protection criteria for the primary system. The
optimal time sharing achieves significant gains compared to equal time
allocation between the EH and IT phases.Comment: Proceedings of the 2015 IEEE International Conference on

Power Allocation and Cooperative Diversity in Two-Way Non-Regenerative Cognitive Radio Networks
In this paper, we investigate the performance of a dual-hop block fading
cognitive radio network with underlay spectrum sharing over independent but not
necessarily identically distributed (i.n.i.d.) Nakagami- fading channels.
The primary network consists of a source and a destination. Depending on
whether the secondary network which consists of two source nodes have a single
relay for cooperation or multiple relays thereby employs opportunistic relay
selection for cooperation and whether the two source nodes suffer from the
primary users' (PU) interference, two cases are considered in this paper, which
are referred to as Scenario (a) and Scenario (b), respectively. For the
considered underlay spectrum sharing, the transmit power constraint of the
proposed system is adjusted by interference limit on the primary network and
the interference imposed by primary user (PU). The developed new analysis
obtains new analytical results for the outage capacity (OC) and average symbol
error probability (ASEP). In particular, for Scenario (a), tight lower bounds
on the OC and ASEP of the secondary network are derived in closed-form. In
addition, a closed from expression for the end-to-end OC of Scenario (a) is
achieved. With regards to Scenario (b), a tight lower bound on the OC of the
secondary network is derived in closed-form. All analytical results are
corroborated using Monte Carlo simulation method
Joint Secure Beamforming for Cognitive Radio Networks with Untrusted Secondary Users
In this paper, we consider simultaneous wireless information and power
transfer (SWIPT) in orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA)
systems with the coexistence of information receivers (IRs) and energy
receivers (ERs). The IRs are served with best-effort secrecy data and the ERs
harvest energy with minimum required harvested power. To enhance physical-layer
security and yet satisfy energy harvesting requirements, we introduce a new
frequency-domain artificial noise based approach. We study the optimal resource
allocation for the weighted sum secrecy rate maximization via transmit power
and subcarrier allocation. The considered problem is non-convex, while we
propose an efficient algorithm for solving it based on Lagrange duality method.
Simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm as
compared against other heuristic schemes.Comment: To appear in Globecom 201
