Abstract:
In this paper, the fundamental performance of the simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) system is studied. Unlike any existing works where the codelength was assumed to be infinity, we explicitly consider the case of the finite codelength, which is much more realistic especially for the practical SWIPT system due to its limited power and complexity. For the four well-known SWIPT schemes, we analyze the tradeoff between the rate and energy; then we study the optimality of those SWIPT schemes. Furthermore, to fully characterize the fundamental performance of the SWIPT system in the regime of finite codelength, we propose to additionally use the new tradeoff between the decoding error probability and the harvested energy. In the sense of this new tradeoff, we study the optimality of the four SWIPT schemes. For the analysis of the two types of tradeoffs, we consider two different cases: when the transmit power of symbols is adapted or not. For various scenarios, we provide useful insights into the performance of the SWIPT system in the finite codelength.
