Minimizing Outage Probability by Exploiting CSI in Wireless Powered Cooperative Networks
In this work, we address the relay selection problem for the wireless powered
communication networks, where the relays harvest energy from the source radio
frequency signals. A single source-destination pair is considered without a
direct link. The connecting relay nodes are equipped with storage batteries of
infinite size. We assume that the channel state information (CSI) on the
source-relay link is available at the relay nodes. Depending on the
availability of the CSI on the relay-destination link at the relay node, we
propose different relay selection schemes and evaluate the outage probability.
The availability of the CSI at the relay node on the relay-destination link
considerably improves the performance due to additional flexibility in the
relay selection mechanism. We numerically quantify the performance for the
proposed schemes and compare the outage probability for fixed and equal number
of wireless powered forwarding relays.Comment: accepted in IEEE Globecom 201
Energy Efficient Multiuser Scheduling: Statistical Guarantees on Bursty Packet Loss
In this paper, we consider energy efficient multiuser scheduling. Packet loss
tolerance of the applications is exploited to minimize average system energy.
There is a constraint on average packet drop rate and maximum number of packets
dropped successively (bursty loss). A finite buffer size is assumed. We propose
a scheme which schedules the users opportunistically according to the channel
conditions, packet loss constraints and buffer size parameters. We assume
imperfect channel state information at the transmitter side and analyze the
scheme in large user limit using stochastic optimization techniques. First, we
optimize system energy for a fixed buffer size which results in a corresponding
statistical guarantee on successive packet drop. Then, we determine the minimum
buffer size to achieve a target (improved) energy efficiency for the same (or
better) statistical guarantee. We show that buffer size can be traded
effectively to achieve system energy efficiency for target statistical
guarantees on packet loss parameters.Comment: Proc. Physcomnet in conjunction with WIOPT 201
Linear Finite-Field Deterministic Networks With Many Sources and One Destination
We find the capacity region of linear finite-field deterministic networks
with many sources and one destination. Nodes in the network are subject to
interference and broadcast constraints, specified by the linear finite-field
deterministic model. Each node can inject its own information as well as relay
other nodes' information. We show that the capacity region coincides with the
cut-set region. Also, for a specific case of correlated sources we provide
necessary and sufficient conditions for the sources transmissibility. Given the
"deterministic model" approximation for the corresponding Gaussian network
model, our results may be relevant to wireless sensor networks where the
sensing nodes multiplex the relayed data from the other nodes with their own
data, and where the goal is to decode all data at a single "collector" node.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, submitted to ISIT 201
Maximizing Energy Efficiency in Multiple Access Channels by Exploiting Packet Dropping and Transmitter Buffering
Quality of service (QoS) for a network is characterized in terms of various
parameters specifying packet delay and loss tolerance requirements for the
application. The unpredictable nature of the wireless channel demands for
application of certain mechanisms to meet the QoS requirements. Traditionally,
medium access control (MAC) and network layers perform these tasks. However,
these mechanisms do not take (fading) channel conditions into account. In this
paper, we investigate the problem using cross layer techniques where
information flow and joint optimization of higher and physical layer is
permitted. We propose a scheduling scheme to optimize the energy consumption of
a multiuser multi-access system such that QoS constraints in terms of packet
loss are fulfilled while the system is able to maximize the advantages emerging
from multiuser diversity. Specifically, this work focuses on modeling and
analyzing the effects of packet buffering capabilities of the transmitter on
the system energy for a packet loss tolerant application. We discuss low
complexity schemes which show comparable performance to the proposed scheme.
The numerical evaluation reveals useful insights about the coupling effects of
different QoS parameters on the system energy consumption and validates our
analytical results.Comment: in IEEE trans. Wireless communications, 201
Energy Efficient Scheduling for Loss Tolerant IoT Applications with Uninformed Transmitter
In this work we investigate energy efficient packet scheduling problem for
the loss tolerant applications. We consider slow fading channel for a point to
point connection with no channel state information at the transmitter side
(CSIT). In the absence of CSIT, the slow fading channel has an outage
probability associated with every transmit power. As a function of data loss
tolerance parameters and peak power constraints, we formulate an optimization
problem to minimize the average transmit energy for the user equipment (UE).
The optimization problem is not convex and we use stochastic optimization
technique to solve the problem. The numerical results quantify the effect of
different system parameters on average transmit power and show significant
power savings for the loss tolerant applications.Comment: Published in ICC 201
Effective Capacity of Cognitive Radio Links: Accessing Primary Feedback Erroneously
We study the performance of a cognitive system modeled by one secondary and
one primary link and operating under statistical quality of service (QoS) delay
constraints. We analyze the effective capacity (EC) to quantify the secondary
user (SU) performance under delay constraints. The SU intends to maximize the
benefit of the feedback messages on the primary link to reduce SU interference
for primary user (PU) and makes opportunistic use of the channel to transmit
his packets. We assume that SU has erroneous access to feedback information of
PU. We propose a three power level scheme and study the tradeoff between
degradation in EC of SU and reliability of PU defined as the success rate of
the transmitted packets. Our analysis shows that increase in error in feedback
access causes more interference to PU and packet success rate decreases
correspondingly.Comment: Accepted for publication in International Symposium on Wireless

Trading Wireless Information and Power Transfer: Relay Selection to Minimize the Outage Probability
This paper studies the outage probability minimization problem for a multiple
relay network with energy harvesting constraints. The relays are hybrid nodes
used for simultaneous wireless information and power transfer from the source
radio frequency (RF) signals. There is a trade-off associated with the amount
of time a relay node is used for energy and information transfer. Large
intervals of information transfer implies little time for energy harvesting
from RF signals and thus, high probability of outage events. We propose relay
selection schemes for a cooperative system with a fixed number of RF powered
relays. We address both causal and non-causal channel state information cases
at the relay--destination link and evaluate the trade-off associated with
information/power transfer in the context of minimization of outage
probability.Comment: IEEE GlobalSiP, 201
Energy Efficient Multiuser Scheduling: Exploiting the Loss Tolerance of the Application
We address the problem of energy efficient scheduling for the loss tolerant applications by exploiting the multiuser diversity. The proposed scheduling scheme allows dropping of a certain predefined proportion of data packets on the transmitter side. However, there is a hard constraint on the maximum number of successively dropped packets. The scheduler exploits average data loss tolerance to reduce the average system energy expenditure while fulfills the hard constraint on successively dropped packets. We analyze the scheme using asymptotically large user limit. The numerical results illustrate the energy efficiency of the scheme as a function of the average packet drop probability and the maximum permitted successively dropped packets parameters
