Beamforming Optimization for Full-Duplex Wireless-powered MIMO Systems
We propose techniques for optimizing transmit beamforming in a full-duplex
multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) wireless-powered communication system,
which consists of two phases. In the first phase, the wireless-powered mobile
station (MS) harvests energy using signals from the base station (BS), whereas
in the second phase, both MS and BS communicate to each other in a full-duplex
mode. When complete instantaneous channel state information (CSI) is available,
the BS beamformer and the time-splitting (TS) parameter of energy harvesting
are jointly optimized in order to obtain the BS-MS rate region. The joint
optimization problem is non-convex, however, a computationally efficient
optimum technique, based upon semidefinite relaxation and line-search, is
proposed to solve the problem. A sub-optimum zero-forcing approach is also
proposed, in which a closed-form solution of TS parameter is obtained. When
only second-order statistics of transmit CSI is available, we propose to
maximize the ergodic information rate at the MS, while maintaining the outage
probability at the BS below a certain threshold. An upper bound for the outage
probability is also derived and an approximate convex optimization framework is
proposed for efficiently solving the underlying non-convex problem. Simulations
demonstrate the advantages of the proposed methods over the sub-optimum and
half-duplex ones.Comment: 14 pages, accepte
Analytic solutions to a Marcum Q-function-based integral and application in energy detection of unknown signals over multipath fading channels
This work presents analytic solutions for a useful integral in wireless
communications, which involves the Marcum function in combination with an
exponential function and arbitrary power terms. The derived expressions have a
rather simple algebraic representation which renders them convenient both
analytically and computationally. Furthermore, they can be useful in wireless
communications and particularly in the context of cognitive radio
communications and radar systems, where this integral is often encountered. To
this end, we derive novel expressions for the probability of detection in
energy detection based spectrum sensing over fading channels.
These expressions are given in closed-form and are subsequently employed in
analyzing the effects of generalised multipath fading conditions in cognitive
radio systems. As expected, it is shown that the detector is highly dependent
upon the severity of fading conditions as even slight variation of the fading
parameters affect the corresponding performance significantly.Comment: Latest/Preprint Versio
