Abstract

Device-to-device (D2D) communications and simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) technologies are key to Internet of Things (IoT) to achieve massive connectivity and to prolong battery lifetime, respectively. In this article, we propose novel schemes for transmit power adaptation to maximize the average data rate and to minimize the outage probability of D2D communications over fast and slow-fading channels, respectively, where the D2D network coexists with a SWIPT-based IoT cellular network operating with the time-switching protocol. Also, different from the existing works, circuit power consumption for information decoding is taken into account in this article. To solve the formulated nonconvex power adaptation problems, we first derive tractable lower bound and upper bound on the average data rate and outage probability of cellular user (CU), respectively. Then, based on the conservative approximation, power adaptation solutions are determined. Intriguingly, we show that in the proposed schemes, the performance tradeoff between information decoding and energy harvesting at the CU is not degraded despite the reception of the D2D signals (i.e., interfering signals). Furthermore, deriving and analyzing closed-form bounds on the D2D performance, we obtain useful insights into the D2D performance improvement by the proposed power adaptation schemes. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed schemes outperform the baseline scheme, and verify the obtained insights.
