In the proposed system, the Receive Node (RN) applies Power Splitting (PS) to coordinate the Energy Harvesting (EH) and Information Decoding (ID) process, where the harvested energy is utilized to guarantee the iterative Multi-User Detection (MUD) of IDMA to work under sufficient number of iterations. Our objective is to minimize the total transmit power of Source Node (SN), while satisfying the requirements of both minimum harvested energy and Bit Error Rate (BER) performance from individual receive nodes. We formulate such a problem as a joint power allocation and splitting one, where the iteration number of MUD is also taken into consideration as the key parameter to affect both EH and ID constraints. To solve it, a sub-optimal algorithm is proposed to determine the power profile, PS ratio and iteration number of MUD in an iterative manner. Simulation results verify that the proposed algorithm can provide significant performance improvement.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s17071566","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,4]],"date-time":"2017-07-04T10:31:57Z","timestamp":1499164317000},"page":"1566","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Joint Transmit Power Allocation and Splitting for SWIPT Aided OFDM-IDMA in Wireless Sensor Networks"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Shanshan","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Shandong Provincial Key Laboratory of Wireless Communication Technologies, School of Information Science and Engineering, Shandong University, Jinan 250100, China"}]},{"given":"Xiaotian","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shandong Provincial Key Laboratory of Wireless Communication Technologies, School of Information Science and Engineering, Shandong University, Jinan 250100, China"}]},{"given":"Cheng-Xiang","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Sensors, Signals and Systems, School of Engineering and Physical Sciences, Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh EH14 4AS, UK"}]},{"given":"Dongfeng","family":"Yuan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shandong Provincial Key Laboratory of Wireless Communication Technologies, School of Information Science and Engineering, Shandong University, Jinan 250100, China"}]},{"given":"Wensheng","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shandong Provincial Key Laboratory of Wireless Communication Technologies, School of Information Science and Engineering, Shandong University, Jinan 250100, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"4","DOI":"10.1109\/MVT.2006.307294","article-title":"Comparison of Orthogonal and Non-Orthogonal Approaches to Future Wireless Cellular Systems","volume":"1","author":"Wang","year":"2006","journal-title":"IEEE Veh.
