Abstract

In order to solve the problem with energy supply, this paper studies an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-enabled radio frequency energy harvesting (RFEH) system with non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA). Time allocation and UAV's trajectory are jointly optimized to maximize the energy efficiency under a novel unevenly discretized trajectory design. Lagrange multiplier method is used to perform time allocation optimization, where the Dinkelbach algorithm, difference of convex (DC) programming, and successive convex approximation (SCA) are used to fix the non-convexity of the problem. In addition, we put forward a trajectory optimization method based on Q-learning. Time allocation and trajectory are then optimized alternately. Finally, simulation results show that our proposed design achieves better energy efficiency than benchmark schemes.
