Abstract
Wireless powered communication (WPC) is able to provide the wireless devices (WDs) practically infinite energy for information transmission, by deploying multiple power beacons (PBs) as dedicated energy source. The performance of wireless energy transfer and wireless information transmission may significantly vary depending on the locations of the wireless nodes and the channels used for signal transmission. To enable efficient transmission and overcome the doubly-near-far problem in WPC, this paper proposes a PB deployment strategy where the distribution of PBs is subject to a truncated Poisson cluster process (PCP), and analytically investigates the performance of WPC in terms of the SNR outage probability. Specifically, we consider a harvest-then-transmit communication network, where WDs use RF harvested energy for the information transmission in each time block. The wireless energy transfer between WDs and PBs is achieved by either directed mode (WD is served by the closed PB) or isotropic mode (WD is served by multiple PBs). We first investigate the distribution of the distance between WD and an arbitrary PB in the associated cluster. Then, we derive a numerically computable form of the SNR outage probability for directed mode and a tight upper bound of the SNR outage probability for isotropic mode. Finally, numerical results verify the accuracy of the analytical results, present performance comparisons with varied network parameters, and reveal the advantages of the truncated PCP based PB deployment over the random PB deployment and the symmetric PB deployment.

Let us denote the reference WD chosen uniformly at random in the representative cluster is located at origin. Without loss of generality, we assume the location of the AP in the cluster is denoted by \({\mathbf x}_o=(v,0)\), and the region where PB can be distributed is represented by \(A_{p}= B _p({\mathbf x}_o,r,R)\) (the shaded regions in Fig. 4). The expression of the CDF of the distance \(d_R\) is
where \( B (o,u)\) denotes the circle centered at origin with radius u (red circles in Fig. 4) and \(|\varXi |\) represents the area covered by any generic region \(\varXi \in \mathbb {R}^2\). The area of the joint region between \(A_{p}\) and \( B (o,u)\) can be computed for different configurations between r, R, u, and v. As shown in Fig. 4, when \(r\ge \frac{R}{3}\), with the increasing of v, four different configurations have to be considered and thus four varied piecewise function of \(F_{d_R}(u|v)\) can be derived. The similar characterization can be carried out for \(r<\frac{R}{3}\). Finally, the expressions of PDF of \(d_R\) is obtained by differentiating \(F_{d_R}(u|v)\) with respect to u.
