An Efficient Transmission Power Design for SWIPT Multi-antenna Network Integrated by an Intelligent Reflecting Surface by Pham Viet Tuan, Dinh Long Hoang, Tu Ha Nguyen, Trong Duc Hoang

“…The sum transmission power minimization problem is formulated under the quality-of-service constraints of data rate and energy harvesting amount at the TS users and the equal time-switching periods. The successive convex approximation and alternating optimization methods are exploited to construct efficient algorithms for finding the suboptimal precoding beamforming vectors at the BS and the phase shifts at the IRS elements. …”

Error Data Analytics on RSS Range-Based Localization by Shuhui Yang, Zimu Yuan, Wei Li

“…In this proposed work, we adopt a generalized measurement model to find optimal estimators whose estimated error is equal to the Cramér-Rao Lower Bound (CRLB). Through mathematical techniques, the key factors that affect the accuracy of RSS-based localization methods are revealed, and the analytics expression that discloses the proportional relationship between the localization accuracy and these factors is derived. …”
