This article considers the outage performance of the downlink transmission for a small cell network in a heterogeneous network. Due to mobility and distribution of users, it is necessary to study massive connections and high energy efficiency for such kind of systems. To be an enabler of energy harvesting, a power beacon is helpful to support the base station to send signals to distant users, and wireless power transfer (WPT) is exploited to guarantee the data packets transmission from the power beacon to the base station. To provide massive connections, we propose a novel non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technique combined with WPT to enhance outage performance and latency reduction. Furthermore, we derive outage probability (OP) to characterize the system performance. Simulation results are verified to match well between theoretical and analytical methods, and main parameters are determined to understand how they affect the proposed scheme.

A downlink of small-cell network is studied in this paper studies in term of outage performance. We benefit by design of multiple antennas at the base station and fullduplex transmission mode. The scenario of multiple surrounded small-cell networks is considered to look the impact of interference. We derive the closed-form expression of outage probability to show performance of mobile user. We investigate target rate is main factor affecting to outage performance. According to the considered system, simulation results indicate reasonable value of outage probability and throughput as well. Finally, Monte-Carlo simulation method is deployed to determine exactness of main results found in this article. Finally, the considered system can exhibit improved performance if controlling interference term.

Power domain based multiple access scheme is introduced in this paper, namely Non-orthogonal multiple-access (NOMA). We deploy a wireless network using NOMA together with a wireless power transfer (WPT) scheme for dedicated user over Nakagami-$m$ fading channel. When combined, these promising techniques (NOMA and WPT) improve the system performance in term of ergodic performance at reasonable coefficient of harvested power. However, fixed power allocation factors for each NOMA user can be adjusted at the base station and it further provide performance improvement. We design a new signal frame to deploy a NOMA scheme in WPT which adopts a linear energy harvesting model. The ergodic capacity in such a NOMA network and power allocation factors can be updated frequently in order to achieve a fair distribution among NOMA users. The exact expressions of ergodic capacity for each user is derived. The simulation results show that an agreement between analytic performance and Monte-Carlo simulation can be achieved.

This paper considers the price-based resource allocation problem for wireless power transfer (WPT)-enabled massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) networks. The power beacon (PB) can transmit energy to the sensor nodes (SNs) by pricing their harvested energy. Then, the SNs transmit their data to the base station (BS) with large scale antennas by the harvesting energy. The interaction between PB and SNs is modeled as a Stackelberg game. The revenue maximization problem of the PB is transformed into the non-convex optimization problem of the transmit power and the harvesting time of the PB by backward induction. Based on the equivalent convex optimization problem, an optimal resource allocation algorithm is proposed to find the optimal price, energy harvesting time, and power allocation for the PB to maximize its revenue. Finally, simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we investigate non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) network relying on wireless power transfer to prolong lifetime. The base station (BS) sends common signals to the relay with two functions (energy harvesting (EH) and signal processing) to further serve two NOMA users in downlink. Performance gap exists since different power allocation factor assigned from power splitting protocol adopted at the relay and such relay employs both amplify-and-forward (AF) and decode-and-forward schemes. To provide performance metrics, we prove formulas of the outage probability which is a function of transmit signal to noise ratio. Simulation results indicate specific parameters to adjust system performance of two user in the considered EH-NOMA system. This finding is important recommendation to design EH-NOMA which shows particular outage performance at required target rates.
