Abstract

The achievable sum rate of a wireless-powered multi-cell/multi-user cognitive radio massive multiple-input multiple-output system with underlay spectrum sharing is investigated. The secondary user nodes can harvest energy from the primary user transmissions, and then access and utilize the primary network spectrum for information transmission. The signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio and achievable sum rate are derived for two specific antenna configurations: 1) unlimited base-station antenna arrays and 2) limited base-station antenna arrays. Furthermore, the optimal time-switching factor and the energy-rate trade-off are quantified in closed-form. The asymptotic analysis reveals that the secondary system can be operated by using its maximum harvested energy when the number of primary base-station antennas grows without bound without hindering the primary transmission.
