Title
A Novel Graphics-Based Multi-Epoch Power Adjustment Strategy For Wpcns
Abstract
In this paper, we focus on a wireless powered communication network where a hybrid access point can wirelessly activate the power of source nodes, and receive their information. Considering the time-switching protocol that implies energy harvesting, and energy usage are separated by time, a novel graphics-based multi-epoch power adjustment (GB-MPA) strategy is proposed to maximize the sum-throughput over a finite time horizon consisting of multiple transmission epochs. The proposed strategy relies on graphical constraint conditions, and allows the elimination of restrictions corresponding to the objective of throughput maximization. Moreover, the proposed GB-MPA strategy can be combined with the time-switching factor optimization by employing an alternating optimization procedure for performance enhancement. Simulation results show the accuracy of the proposed strategy, reduced complexity compared with the conventional convex optimization method, and the existing multi-epoch power adjustment strategy, and the compatibility with the alternating optimization procedure for developing the joint power, and time allocation scheme.
