Optimal Multiuser Scheduling Schemes for Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer
In this paper, we study the downlink multiuser scheduling problem for systems
with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT). We design
optimal scheduling algorithms that maximize the long-term average system
throughput under different fairness requirements, such as proportional fairness
and equal throughput fairness. In particular, the algorithm designs are
formulated as non-convex optimization problems which take into account the
minimum required average sum harvested energy in the system. The problems are
solved by using convex optimization techniques and the proposed optimization
framework reveals the tradeoff between the long-term average system throughput
and the sum harvested energy in multiuser systems with fairness constraints.
Simulation results demonstrate that substantial performance gains can be
achieved by the proposed optimization framework compared to existing suboptimal
scheduling algorithms from the literature.Comment: Accepted for presentation at the European Signal Processing

Proportional fairness in wireless powered CSMA/CA based IoT networks
This paper considers the deployment of a hybrid wireless data/power access
point in an 802.11-based wireless powered IoT network. The proportionally fair
allocation of throughputs across IoT nodes is considered under the constraints
of energy neutrality and CPU capability for each device. The joint optimization
of wireless powering and data communication resources takes the CSMA/CA random
channel access features, e.g. the backoff procedure, collisions, protocol
overhead into account. Numerical results show that the optimized solution can
effectively balance individual throughput across nodes, and meanwhile
proportionally maximize the overall sum throughput under energy constraints.Comment: Accepted by Globecom 201
