Dynamic Asymmetric Power Splitting Scheme for SWIPT-Based Two-Way Multiplicative AF Relaying

Abstract

Power splitting (PS) scheme design is one of the most important challenges in simultaneous wireless information and power transfer-based two-way multiplicative amplify-and-forward relay networks. In this letter, we propose a novel dynamic asymmetric PS (DAPS) scheme to minimize the system outage probability by exploiting the asymmetric instantaneous channel gains between the relay node and the destination nodes. As the formulated optimization problem is a nonconvex problem and difficult to solve, we reformulate it as a fractional programming problem and propose a Dinkelbach-based iterative algorithm to obtain the optimal asymmetric PS ratios. Both the analytical and simulation results demonstrate that the proposed DAPS scheme with the same channel state information overhead can significantly reduce the system outage probability as compared with the existing static symmetric PS scheme.
