On Performance of Intelligent Reflecting Surface Aided Wireless Powered IoT Network With HIs

Performance Analysis of cooperative SWIPT System: Intelligent Reflecting Surface versus Decode-and-Forward

In this paper, we explore the impacts of utilizing intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRS) in a power-splitting based simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (PS-SWIPT) system and compare its performance with the traditional decode and forward relaying system. To analyze a more practical system, it is also assumed that the receiving nodes are subject to decoding cost, and they are on...

Real-Time Performance of a Self-Powered Environmental IoT Sensor Network System

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) play an increasingly important role in monitoring applications in many areas. With the emergence of the Internet-of-Things (IoT), many more lowpower sensors will need to be deployed in various environments to collect and monitor data about environmental factors in real time. Providing power supply to these sensor nodes becomes a critical challenge for realization...

Minimum Throughput Maximization in UAV-Aided Wireless Powered Communication Networks

This paper investigates unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-aided wireless powered communication network (WPCN) systems where a mobile access point (AP) at the UAV serves multiple energyconstrained ground terminals (GTs). Specifically, the UAVs first charge the GTs by transmitting the wireless energy transfer (WET) signals in the downlink. Then, by utilizing the harvested wireless energy from the UAV...

An Intelligent Fog Centric Network for IoT-Driven Smart Communities

The Internet of Things (IoT) architecture currently being implemented in commercial applications does not fully realize the potential of IoT devices. The IoT devices themselves lack the computational power to perform significant and real-time feedback for the data being gathered at edge devices. The current architecture places most of the computational burden on various cloud servers. This crea...
