Fairness-aware Age-of-Information Minimization in WPT-Assisted Short-Packet Data Collection for mURLLC (2404.02159v2)

Published 15 Feb 2024 in cs.IT, eess.SP, and math.IT

Abstract: The technological landscape is rapidly evolving toward large-scale systems. Networks supporting massive connectivity through numerous Internet of Things (IoT) devices are at the forefront of this advancement. In this paper, we examine Wireless Power Transfer (WPT)-enabled networks, where a server requires to collect data from these IoT devices to compute a task with massive Ultra-Reliable and Low-Latency Communication (mURLLC) services.} We focus on information freshness, using Age-of-Information (AoI) as the key performance metric. Specifically, we aim to minimize the maximum AoI among IoT devices by optimizing the scheduling policy. Our analytical findings demonstrate the convexity of the problem, enabling efficient solutions. We introduce the concept of AoI-oriented cluster capacity and analyze the relationship between the number of supported devices and network AoI performance. Numerical simulations validate our proposed approach's effectiveness in enhancing AoI performance, highlighting its potential for guiding the design of future IoT systems requiring mURLLC services.
