We consider the capacity region of a $K$-user multiple access channel (MAC) with energy harvesting transmitters. Each user stores and schedules the randomly arriving energy using an energy buffer. Users can also perform energy cooperation…
We consider a Gaussian multiple access channel (GMAC) where the users are sensor nodes powered by energy harvesters. The energy harvester has no buffer to store the harvested energy and hence the energy need to be expended immediately. We…
We consider an AWGN channel with a transmitter powered by an energy harvesting source. The node is equipped with a finite energy buffer. Such a system can be modelled as a channel with side information (about energy in the energy buffer)…
We consider an energy harvesting channel, in which the transmitter is powered by an exogenous stochastic energy harvesting process $E_t$, such that $0\leq E_t\leq\bar{E}$, which can be stored in a battery of finite size $\bar{B}$. We…
We study the channel capacity of a general discrete energy harvesting channel with a finite battery. Contrary to traditional communication systems, the transmitter of such a channel is powered by a device that harvests energy from a random…
In energy harvesting communication systems, an exogenous recharge process supplies energy for the data transmission and arriving energy can be buffered in a battery before consumption. Transmission is interrupted if there is not sufficient…
The capacity region of a two-transmitter Gaussian multiple access channel (MAC) under average input power constraints is studied, when the receiver employs a zero-threshold one-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC). It is proved that the…
We consider the achievable average rates of a multiple-access system, which consists of N energy-harvesting users (EHUs) that transmit information over a block fading multiple-access channel (MAC) and a base station (BS) that broadcasts…
Energy harvesting communication has raised great research interests due to its wide applications and feasibility of commercialization. In this paper, we investigate the multiuser energy diversity. Specifically, we reveal the throughput gain…
We consider an additive White Gaussian channel where the transmitter is powered by an energy harvesting source. For such a system, we provide a lower bound on the maximal code book at finite code lengths that improves upon previously known…
This paper considers a two-user Gaussian interference channel with energy harvesting transmitters. Different than conventional battery powered wireless nodes, energy harvesting transmitters have to adapt transmission to availability of…
Energy harvesting sensor nodes are gaining popularity due to their ability to improve the network life time and are becoming a preferred choice supporting 'green communication'. In this paper we focus on communicating reliably over an AWGN…
In this paper, the multiple access channel (MAC) with channel state is analyzed in a scenario where a) the channel state is known non-causally to the transmitters and b) there is perfect causal feedback from the receiver to the…
The capacity of a network in which a multiple access channel (MAC) generates interference to a single-user channel is studied. An achievable rate region based on superposition coding and joint decoding is established for the discrete case.…
We first consider an energy harvesting channel with fading, where only the transmitter harvests energy from natural sources. We bound the optimal long term throughput by a constant for a class of energy arrival distributions. The proposed…
In this paper, we investigate the transmission completion time minimization problem in a two-user additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) broadcast channel, where the transmitter is able to harvest energy from the nature, using a rechargeable…
Network life time maximization is becoming an important design goal in wireless sensor networks. Energy harvesting has recently become a preferred choice for achieving this goal as it provides near perpetual operation. We study such a…
We investigate performance limits of a multiple access communication system with energy harvesting nodes where the utility function is taken to be the long-term average sum-throughput. We assume a causal structure for energy arrivals and…
This paper develops a novel approach to obtaining the optimal scheduling strategy in a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) multi-access channel (MAC), where each transmitter is powered by an individual energy harvesting process. Relying on the…
A multiple access channel and a point-to-point channel sharing the same medium for communications are considered. We obtain an outer bound for the capacity region of this setup, and we show that this outer bound is achievable in some cases.…
