Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wireless power supply communication networks, and more particularly to a load-based time-sharing energy resource pricing method. Background Art

[0002] The development of the Internet of Things (IoT) has spawned a wide range of applications. However, the execution of various tasks in these applications relies on energy-constrained IoT devices, posing a challenge to their practical deployment. Wireless Powered Communication Networks (WPCN) can overcome this challenge. WPCNs utilize radio frequency energy harvesting technology to provide a sustainable energy supply to IoT devices, which then uses the harvested energy to support information transmission within these devices. However, in practical applications, WPCNs face the challenge of "double attenuation," and the efficiency of both energy and information transmission needs to be improved.

[0003] Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) can create a more favorable wireless propagation environment by changing the amplitude and phase of the incident signal, thereby improving the efficiency of energy and information transmission. Wireless power communication networks assisted by RIS can combine the advantages of both, improving the performance of traditional wireless power communication networks. Preliminary research has been conducted on wireless power communication networks assisted by RIS. However, during the research of the existing technology, the inventors discovered the following shortcomings:

[0004] First, a large body of previous research has focused primarily on improving the throughput and energy performance of wireless power communication networks, with little attention paid to resource cost issues within wireless power communication networks from the perspective of service providers. Second, much work has focused on scenarios where wireless energy supply nodes provide free energy to IoT devices, without considering the self-interest and service capabilities (energy resource status) of energy supply nodes, which is unrealistic. Finally, the resource pricing of energy supply nodes in wireless power communication networks has not been addressed.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a method to solve the energy supply resource pricing problem of IoT devices in the wireless power communication network scenario, so as to study the resource cost from the perspective of the service provider. Summary of the Invention
