Two-way relay networks with energy harvesting and information transfer: Throughput performance with distance allocation

Abstract

In this paper, we analyse the performance analysis for two and three time slot transmission schemes (2TS and 3TS) for two-way Amplify-and-Forward (AF) relaying networks which are developed by wireless power and data transfer, where the energy harvesting (EH) relay node helps interchange information between two nodes. We derive the throughput and the approximate expressions of outage probability of the 2TS, 3TS transmission schemes and compare these results with the distance allocation between source node to relay and relay to destination node, and the large scale path loss in order to observe throughput performance. It is noted that these transmission schemes can significantly enhance the system performance.
