The Optimal Power Control Policy for an Energy Harvesting System with Look-Ahead: Bernoulli Energy Arrivals
share
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.
