Abstract

Relying on the propagation of modulated radio-frequency (RF) signals, we can achieve simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) to support low-power communication devices. In this paper, we proposed a unary coding based SWIPT encoder by considering a practical M-QAM. Markov chains are exploited for characterising coherent binary information source and for modelling the generation process of modulated symbols. Therefore, both mutual information and the average energy harvesting performance at the SWIPT receiver are analysed in semi-closed-form. With the aid of the genetic algorithm, the sub-optimal codeword distribution of the coded information source is obtained by maximising the average energy harvesting performance, while satisfying the requirement of the mutual information. Simulation results demonstrate the advantage of the SWIPT encoder. Moreover, a higher-level unary code and a lower-order M-QAM results in higher WPT performance, when the maximum transmit power of the modulated symbol is fixed.
