|---|---|---|
Cognitive radio and energy harvesting techniques have provided significant benefits in terms of spectrum reuse and lifetime prolongation for conventional wireless networks. We are thus motivated to consider the energy harvesting cognitive radio networks (CRNs) consisting of multiple primary users (PUs) and secondary users (SUs). We introduce two cooperation modes: the energy cooperation mode and joint cooperation mode. In the energy cooperation mode, there only exists energy cooperation between PUs and SUs, i.e., the SU transmits its own packets by using the energy harvested from primary signals. In the joint cooperation mode, the SU relays primary packets by using the energy harvested from primary signals. In each cooperation mode of three representational scenarios (the CRN with one pair of PUs and one pair of SUs, the CRN with two pairs of PUs and one pair of SUs, and the CRN with one pair of PUs and two pairs of SUs) and the general scenario, we exploit the optimal time allocation between PUs and SUs, and balance the tradeoff between energy harvesting and packet transmission to obtain the maximum total achievable throughput. To be specific, we first formulate the throughput maximization problems as non-linear optimization problems, and then prove them as convex problems by monotonicity analysis. Moreover, we obtain the closed-form optimal solution in the energy cooperation mode. We prove the existence of the optimal solution in the joint cooperation mode, obtain the upper and lower bounds, and provide numerical analysis for the optimal solution. Finally, we highlight the benefits of information cooperation and the impact of multi-user gain on the maximum of the total achievable throughput. |
