Abstract:

In this paper, we propose quality-of-service (QoS) based resource allocation (RA) schemes for energy harvesting (EH) systems. We consider a system model with a single source and multiple destination nodes or users, in which the source node harvests energy from the environment. Our goal is to develop efficient RA policies for EH systems when the harvested energy at the source node is uncertain and insufficient to satisfy the QoS of the users completely. We develop two different schemes and RA policies to address this problem. In the first scheme, we minimize the total dissatisfaction of the users over a finite period of time through goal programming approach. In the second scheme, we maximize the number of admitted users and provide guaranteed QoS to them. For both schemes, we first develop offline algorithms assuming the availability of perfect and complete information about the harvested energy and channel state information (CSI). Next, we devise online algorithms based on dynamic programming (DP) considering the availability of causal information about the harvested energy and CSI. Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithms and the importance of QoS provisioning based RA schemes in EH systems.
