This paper considers an interference-based radio-frequency energy harvesting (RF-EH)-empowered wireless dual-hop amplify-and-forward relaying system in which an ambient interferer is beneficially utilized as the solely free power source for EH and detrimentally considered as the dominant factor that corrupts its receivers. Three EH modes are consid...

Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) can be crucial in next-generation communication systems. However, designing the RIS phases according to the instantaneous channel state information (CSI) can be challenging in practice due to the short coherent time of the channel. In this regard, we propose a novel algorithm based on the channel statistics...

We study the performance of a selection combining (SC) receiver operating over independent but non-identically distributed log-logistic ($\mathcal{LL})$ fading channels. We first characterize the statistics of the output instantaneous signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the SC receiver. Based on the SNR statistics, we derive exact analytical expressions...
