Abstract

In this paper, we propose an ambient backscatter (AB)-enabled decode-and-forward (DF) cognitive relay network with wireless energy-harvesting capabilities. In our proposed scheme, a source node communicates with its destination node via a radio frequency-powered DF relay. It is assumed that the relay node is equipped with two different interfaces and can concurrently harvest/decode and backscatter the received source signals. A power-splitting-based approach is adopted for the information processing and the energy harvesting at the relay. The analytical expressions for the outage probability at all of the receiving nodes are derived. It has been shown that the analytical results match the simulation results. It has also been shown that using the AB for secondary communications can significantly improve the overall network performance in terms of the achievable throughput and the energy efficiency.
