The Optimal Power Control Policy for an Energy Harvesting System with Look-Ahead: Bernoulli Energy Arrivals (1904.12281v1)
Published 28 Apr 2019 in cs.IT, eess.SP, and math.IT
Abstract: We study power control for an energy harvesting communication system with independent and identically distributed Bernoulli energy arrivals. It is assumed that the transmitter is equipped with a finite-sized rechargeable battery and is able to look ahead to observe a fixed number of future arrivals. A complete characterization is provided for the optimal power control policy that achieves the maximum long-term average throughput over an additive white Gaussian noise channel.
