Abstract

We propose a new simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) technique that embeds information bits in the tone-index of multisine waveforms. By varying the number of subcarriers of the transmitted bandwidth-constrained multisine signal, the proposed scheme enables efficient radio-frequency energy harvesting and low-complexity information transmission. The receiver does not require channel estimation and employs a non-coherent maximum-likelihood detection at the envelope of the received signal. The performance of the proposed tone-index modulation is evaluated in terms of average error probability for a flat-fading channel, and we show that it outperforms its peak-to-average-power-ratio counterpart.
