Abstract
We aim to improve both the energy harvesting efficiency and communication reliability of overlay networks powered by harvested energy. To this end, multiple antennas are considered to collect energy efficiently and perform reliable decoding by selecting the transmitting antenna and applying maximum-ratio combining. To further improve communication reliability, nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA)-relied decoding is applied to the secondary receiver. For performance evaluation, exact formulas for the secondary/primary outage probability are derived in a closed form. The evaluation results show that the proposed method substantially outperforms a baseline without the NOMA-relied decoding in all the system settings. The performance of the proposed method is determined by multiple specifications and optimized by allocating the times for energy harvesting and information processing.
