A joint resource allocation algorithm to minimize the system outage probability is proposed for a decode-and-forward (DF) two-way relay network with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) under a total power constraint. In this network, the two sources nodes exchange information with the help of a passive relay, which is assumed to help the two source nodes’ communication without consuming its own energy by exploiting an energy-harvesting protocol, the power splitting (PS) protocol. An optimization framework to jointly optimize power allocation (PA) at the source nodes and PS at the relay is developed. Since the formulated joint optimization problem is non-convex, the solution is developed in two steps. First, the conditionally optimal PS ratio at the relay node for a given PA ratio is explored; then, the closed-form of the optimal PA in the sense of minimizing the system outage probability with instantaneous channel state information (CSI) is derived. Analysis shows that the optimal design depends on the channel condition and the rate threshold. Simulation results are obtained to validate the analytical results. Comparison with three existing schemes shows that the proposed optimized scheme has the minimum system outage probability.

This paper considers simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) in a decode-and-forward two-way relay (DF-TWR) network, where a power splitting protocol is employed at the relay for energy harvesting. The goal is to jointly optimize power allocation (PA) at the source nodes, power splitting (PS) at the relay node, and time allocation (TA) of each duration to minimize the system outage probability. In particular, we propose a static joint resource allocation (JRA) scheme and a dynamic JRA scheme with statistical channel properties and instantaneous channel characteristics, respectively. With the derived closed-form expression of the outage probability, a successive alternating optimization algorithm is proposed to tackle the static JRA problem. For the dynamic JRA scheme, a suboptimal closed-form solution is derived based on a multistep optimization and relaxation method. We present a comprehensive set of simulation results to evaluate the proposed schemes and compare their performances with those of existing resource allocation schemes.
