CALL FOR PAPERS
IEEE Journal of Selected Areas in Communications Wireless Communications Powered by Energy Harvesting and Wireless Energy Transfer

Energy harvesting and wireless energy transfer open up new exciting possibilities in wireless communication and networking by enabling energy self-sufficient, energy self-sustaining environmentally friendly operation with practically infinite lifetimes, untethered mobility, cooperation at signal and energy levels, and simultaneous and synergistic distribution of information and energy in networks. Towards bringing such networks into life, there are many theoretical and practical open problems. This special issue is dedicated to communication theory, information theory, networking and signal processing aspects of wireless communication networks composed of devices that can harvest energy from nature and transfer energy wirelessly. We solicit original papers in areas including (but not limited to):

• Fundamental limits of communication under energy harvesting.

• Packet scheduling in energy harvesting networks.

• Simultaneous energy and information transfer.

• Energy cooperation and relaying in wireless networks.

• Routing and MAC protocols under energy harvesting constraints.

• Cognitive networking with energy harvesting.

• Detection, estimation, computation, compression and signal processing under energy harvesting.

• Energy harvesting models and learning algorithms.

• Energy harvesting sensor networking.

• Security concerns in energy harvesting networks.
