With the transferred power, the SWIPT relays are adopted to improve the energy efficiency at the destination node. Two typical relay structures, decode-and-forward (DF) and amplify-and-forward (AF), are exploited for the optimal relay selection and power allocation with a power splitting SWIPT architecture. Nonconvex energy efficiency optimization problems are formulated for both DF and AF relay types. Based on the SNRs at the destination node, closed-form expressions of the optimal power splitting ratios are provided for DF and AF relays, respectively. With the optimal power splitting ratio, relay selection schemes based on full and partial knowledge of the channel state information are derived. Moreover, a novel power allocation scheme is proposed and illustrated based on the property of the simplified optimization problem with the power and quality of service constraints. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed resource allocation scheme achieves the maximum energy efficiency with low computational complexity, in which the proposed relay selection outperforms the typical relay selection schemes in terms of energy efficiency.This work was supported in part by the National Science Foundation under Grant 1560437 and in part by the Australian Research Councils Discovery Project Funding Scheme Project under Grant DP170100939.application/pdfen-AU© 2020 IEEECooperative wireless networksenergy efficiencypower allocationrelay selectionsimultaneous wireless information and power transfer202010.1109/JSYST.2019.29610012022-09-04
