Transmission power management for throughput maximization in harvesting enabled D2D network

Unlike traditional cellular networks, the multi-tier architecture of 5G networks supports Device-to-Device (D2D) communication, which allows devices to communicate with each other autonomously. Consequently, D2D-enabled Internet of Things (IoT) promise to provide higher bandwidth through frequency spectrum sharing. However, energy efficient operation of the network becomes a major challenge due to unattended operation of devices. In this study,...
