Recent Advances in Joint Wireless Energy and Information Transfer
In this paper, we provide an overview of the recent advances in
microwave-enabled wireless energy transfer (WET) technologies and their
applications in wireless communications. Specifically, we divide our
discussions into three parts. First, we introduce the state-of-the-art WET
technologies and the signal processing techniques to maximize the energy
transfer efficiency. Then, we discuss an interesting paradigm named
simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT), where energy and
information are jointly transmitted using the same radio waveform. At last, we
review the recent progress in wireless powered communication networks (WPCN),
where wireless devices communicate using the power harvested by means of WET.
Extensions and future directions are also discussed in each of these areas.Comment: Conference submission accepted by ITW 201
Secure Full-Duplex Two-Way Relaying for SWIPT
This letter studies bi-directional secure information exchange in a
simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) system enabled by
a full-duplex (FD) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) amplify-and-forward
(AF) relay. The AF relay injects artificial noise (AN) in order to confuse the
eavesdropper. Specifically, we assume a zeroforcing (ZF) solution constraint to
eliminate the residual self-interference (RSI). As a consequence, we address
the optimal joint design of the ZF matrix and the AN covariance matrix at the
relay node as well as the transmit power at the sources. We propose an
alternating algorithm utilizing semi-definite programming (SDP) technique and
one-dimensional searching to achieve the optimal solution. Simulation results
are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.Comment: Submitted to IEEE Wireless Communications Letter
