Abstract
In this paper, we compute the throughput of wireless communications using Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) when the source harvests energy using a solar panel. Harvesting duration is also optimized to enhance the performance of wireless communications when RIS is used. We derive the statistics of the Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR). We show that the SNR is the product of a Gaussian and a chisquare random variables (r.v.). We consider solar energy harvesting for Rayleigh channels.
期刊介绍:
The wireless communication revolution is bringing fundamental changes to data networking, telecommunication, and is making integrated networks a reality. By freeing the user from the cord, personal communications networks, wireless LAN''s, mobile radio networks and cellular systems, harbor the promise of fully distributed mobile computing and communications, any time, anywhere.
Focusing on the networking and user aspects of the field, Wireless Networks provides a global forum for archival value contributions documenting these fast growing areas of interest. The journal publishes refereed articles dealing with research, experience and management issues of wireless networks. Its aim is to allow the reader to benefit from experience, problems and solutions described.
