Abstract

In this paper, a two-hop decode-and-forward wireless powered relaying cognitive radio network with interference alignment over Rayleigh fading channels is investigated. The energy-constrained secondary relay node harvests energy from both the information and interference signals. Then, the harvested energy is used by the relay to forward the information signal from the source to the destination node. By applying beamforming matrices to primary and secondary networks, the performance metrics, such as outage probability, capacity, and bit error rate are studied under perfect and imperfect channel state information scenarios for both power-splitting relaying (PSR) and time-switching relaying (TSR) protocols. In addition, the optimal network performance is achieved by calculating the optimal energy harvesting time-switching and power-splitting coefficients. Finally, closed-form expressions for the outage probability of primary and secondary users are derived. Monte Carlo simulation results corroborate the analytical ones and show that the PSR technique outperforms TSR in the considered system model.
