Throughput Analysis and Optimization of Wireless-Powered Multiple Antenna Full-Duplex Relay Systems
We consider a full-duplex (FD) decode-and-forward system in which the
time-switching protocol is employed by the multi-antenna relay to receive
energy from the source and transmit information to the destination. The
instantaneous throughput is maximized by optimizing receive and transmit
beamformers at the relay and the time-split parameter. We study both optimum
and suboptimum schemes. The reformulated problem in the optimum scheme achieves
closed-form solutions in terms of transmit beamformer for some scenarios. In
other scenarios, the optimization problem is formulated as a semi-definite
relaxation problem and a rank-one optimum solution is always guaranteed. In the
suboptimum schemes, the beamformers are obtained using maximum ratio combining,
zero-forcing, and maximum ratio transmission. When beamformers have closed-form
solutions, the achievable instantaneous and delay-constrained throughput are
analytically characterized. Our results reveal that, beamforming increases both
the energy harvesting and loop interference suppression capabilities at the FD
relay. Moreover, simulation results demonstrate that the choice of the linear
processing scheme as well as the time-split plays a critical role in
determining the FD gains.Comment: Accepted for publication in IEEE Transactions on Communication
Full-Duplex MIMO Relaying Powered by Wireless Energy Transfer
We consider a full-duplex decode-and-forward system, where the wirelessly
powered relay employs the time-switching protocol to receive power from the
source and then transmit information to the destination. It is assumed that the
relay node is equipped with two sets of antennas to enable full-duplex
communications. Three different interference mitigation schemes are studied,
namely, 1) optimal 2) zero-forcing and 3) maximum ratio combining/maximum ratio
transmission. We develop new outage probability expressions to investigate
delay-constrained transmission throughput of these schemes. Our analysis show
interesting performance comparisons of the considered precoding schemes for
different system and link parameters.Comment: Accepted for IEEE International Workshop on Signal Processing

Performance analysis with wireless power transfer constraint policies in full-duplex relaying networks
In practice, full-duplex (FD) transmission mode not only helps extend the coverage but also lengthen network lifetime. In this paper, we develop wireless power supply policies, namely separated power (SP) and harvested power (HP) to propose a flexible architecture at the relay node in FD decode-and-forward (DF) relaying networks considering time switching-based relaying protocol (TSR) to achieve optimal time used for a communication process. This transmission mode requires more processing procedure at the relay, i.e. antenna installations and radio frequency (RF) self-interference cancellation. We evaluate the optimal power constraints in case of SP and HP to achieve better power consumption efficiency at the relay node. More importantly, closed-form expressions for outage probability and throughput are provided, and we also use numerical and simulation results to compare SP with HP.Web of Science234767
Power Switching Protocol for Two-way Relaying Network under Hardware Impairments
In this paper, we analyze the impact of hardware impairments at relay node and source node (i.e. imperfect nodes) on network performance by evaluating outage probability based on the effective signal to noise and distortion ratio (SNDR). Especially, we propose energy harvesting protocol at the relay and source nodes, namely, power switching imperfect relay (PSIR) and power switching imperfect source (PSIS). Aiming to determine the performance of energy constrained network, we first derive closed-form expressions of the outage probability and then the throughput can be maximized in delay-limited transmission mode. The simulation results provide practical insights into the impacts of hardware impairments and power switching factors of the energy harvesting protocol on the performance of energy harvesting enabled two-way relaying network
