Abstract
In this letter, we propose to utilize spatial modulation (SM) at the wireless device (WD) in a wireless-powered communication (WPC) system for information transmission (IT) by mapping information to the active antenna indices, so that the remaining antennas can be dedicated to energy harvesting (EH) simultaneously. Consequently, the proposed scheme enjoys the advantages of improved system achievable rate (AR), simultaneous EH and IT, and self-energy recycling (SE-R) while requiring no backhaul links between the WD and the information receiver. Numerical results verify the AR enhancement of the proposed scheme with a Gaussian input over the existing time switching-based WPC protocol, the antenna selection-based WPC protocol, and SE-R without SM.
