Beamforming Optimization with the Assistance of Deep Learning in a Rate-Splitting Multiple-Access Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer System with a Power Beacon.

This study examined the implementation of rate-splitting multiple access (RSMA) in a multiple-input single-output system using simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) technology. The coexistence of a base station and a power beacon was considered, aiming to transmit information and energy to two sets of users. One set comprises users who solely harvest energy, whereas the other can decode information and energy using a power-splitting (PS) structure. The main objective of this optimization was to minimize the total transmit power of the system while satisfying the rate requirements for PS users and ensuring minimum energy harvesting (EH) for both PS and EH users. The non-convex problem was addressed by dividing it into two subproblems. The first subproblem was solved using a deep learning-based scheme, combining principal component analysis and a deep neural network. The semidefinite relaxation method was used to solve the second subproblem. The proposed method offers lower computational complexity compared to traditional iterative-based approaches. The simulation results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed scheme compared to traditional methods such as non-orthogonal multiple access and space-division multiple access. Furthermore, the ability of the proposed method to generalize was validated by assessing its effectiveness across several challenging scenarios. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
