Performance Analysis of the Efficiency of Cooperative Communication Systems Utilizing Radio Frequency Energy Harvesting
Abstract
The progress of 5G networks is propelled by wireless technology, specifically mobile internet and smart devices. This article provides an in-depth analysis of the fundamental elements of 5G technology, encompassing the advancement of cellular networks, simultaneous transmission capabilities, energy efficiency enhancements, and the implementation of cooperative communication. This study examines the application of simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) in cooperative device-to-devices (D2D) communication. Specifically, it investigates relay selection using decode-forward (DF) protocols and considers the issue of self-interference. Radio frequency based energy harvesting (RF-EH) is proposed to address power limitations in device-to-device (D2D) communication. This article describes the development of this technology and suggests a system architecture that employs time-switching relaying (TSR) techniques to enhance the power efficiency of base stations. This research aims to assess data transfer efficiency in two-way cooperative communication systems by incorporating many technologies.
