SUMMARY:Hybrid Energy Harvesting Wireless Systems: Performance Evaluation
 and Insights
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\nAbstract:\nEnergy harvesting (EH) is an attractive and
 green solution to the problem of limited lifetime of wireless sensor
 networks. Unlike a conventional node that dies once it runs out of energy\,
 an EH node harvests energy from the environment and replenishes its
 rechargeable battery. We investigate a new class of hybrid networks that
 comprise both EH and conventional nodes and differ from conventional and
 all-EH wireless sensor networks. We argue that the performance criteria
 that are used to evaluate conventional and all-EH networks are no longer
 suitable to evaluate this new class of networks.  We propose two new and
 insightful performance criteria called k-outage duration and n-transmission
 duration to evaluate these networks. They overcome the pitfalls associated
 with defining lifetime\, which arise because the EH nodes never die but can
 occasionally run out of energy\, and capture the dynamic time evolution\,
 which occurs because the conventional nodes irreversibly drain their
 batteries. They also account for the inability of the nodes to transmit
 data due to insufficient battery energy and channel fading. We present
 computationally efficient novel bounds for evaluating these criteria and
 gain several insights about the behavior of these
 networks.\n\n\nBiography:\nNeelesh B. Mehta received his B. Tech degree in

 and multiple access protocols. He has published 60+ papers in IEEE
 journals\, 3 book chapters\, and 70+ conference papers. He is a co-inventor
 of 30+ issued US patents on these topics.  \nHe served on the Board of
 Governors of the IEEE Communications Society from 2012-15. He is a Fellow
 of the Indian National Academy of Engineering (INAE) and the National
 Academy of Sciences India (NASI). He is a recipient of the Swarnajayanti
 Fellowship\, NASI-Scopus Young Scientist award\, Hari Om Ashram Prerit
