RF Energy Harvesting and Transfer for Spectrum Sharing Cellular IoT Communications in 5G Systems.

This paper proposes an energy and spectrum efficient IoT network for 5G systems where spectrum is shared with the cellular system for spectrum efficiency and energy harvesting and energy transfer are utilized for energy efficiency. The IoT network, which consists of sensor nodes and a cluster head with a reliable energy source, reuses part of the cellular band whenever the cellular network does no...
