Abstract
In this paper, a fundamental study of energy efficiency (EE) optimization for coordinated multi-point (CoMP)- simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) heterogeneous networks (HetNets) is provided. We aim to optimize the EE whilst satisfying certain quality-of-service (QoS) requirements in regard to transmission rate and energy harvesting at both the macro-cell and small-cells. The corresponding joint beamforming and power allocation in the presence of intra- and inter-cell interference constitutes a EE maximization problem that is non-convex, and hence very challenging to solve. In order to solve this problem, we propose to separate the beamforming design and power allocation processes. First, we adopt linear zero-forcing (ZF) beamforming to suppress the multi-user interference from both the energy harvesting users (EH-UEs) as well as the information decoding users (ID-UEs), thus transforming the HetNet under consideration to a virtual point-to-point system. An efficient power allocation algorithm is then developed to maximize the corresponding EE. On the other hand, the ZF strategy does not utilize the notion that interference benefits the EH-UEs. As a result, we propose a partial zeroforcing (PZF) approach by differentiating the EH-UEs and IDUEs in order to further improve the EE. Our findings show that the EE can be significantly improved through the integration of CoMP-SWIPT in HetNets.
