Title: Energy Harvesting in Wireless Networks: Challenges, Opportunities and Research Trends
Abstract: Energy harvesting is an effective means to prolong the life of a wireless network, and has recently received remarkable attention since it is increasingly contributing to green communication. With the recent advancements in the technology of low power devices (e.g. efficient DC-DC convertors and antenna rectifiers), it has been shown that ambient radio-frequency (RF) signals is a new promising source for harvesting energy and is expected to be implemented in low power networks in near future. The motivation behind this approach lies in the fact that most devices are surrounded by RF signals, and potentially, energy and information can be carried together by the RF signals during transmission. This talk is focused on exploiting the wireless power networks, with an emphasis on investigating the joint optimal energy and information beamforming designs as well as multiple antenna signal processing in cooperative networks. This talk also points out the some effective methods of tackling the emerging security issues in wireless powered networks. Moreover, the novel non-orthogonal multiple access schemes for wireless powered networks are also underlined. Finally, some promising open research directions are provided in context of wireless powered networks.
