“…Moreover, MBCSs can be affected by the doubly near-far problem. In particular, due to signal loss from the RF source to the backscatter transmitter, and vice versa, if a backscatter transmitter is located far from the reader, it can experience a higher energy outage probability and a lower modulated backscatter signal strength [14]. The MBCSs are mainly adopted for short-range RFID applications.…”

“…Consequently, the overall field coverage can be expanded. Moreover, the doubly near-far problem can be mitigated as backscatter transmitters can derive RF signals sent from nearby carrier emitters to harvest energy and backscatter data [14]. Although carrier emitters are bulky and their deployment is costly, the manufacturing cost for carrier emitters and backscatter receivers of BBCSs is cheaper than that of MBCSs due to the simple design of the components [15].…”

Recently, ambient backscatter communications has been introduced as a cutting-edge technology which enables smart devices to communicate by utilizing ambient radio frequency (RF) signals without requiring active RF transmission. This technology is especially effective in addressing communication and energy efficiency problems for low-power communications systems such as sensor networks. It is expected to realize numerous Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications. Therefore, this paper aims to provide a contemporary and comprehensive literature review on fundamentals, applications, challenges, and research efforts/progress of ambient backscatter communications. In particular, we first present fundamentals of backscatter communications and briefly review bistatic backscatter communications systems. Then, the general architecture, advantages, and solutions to address existing issues and limitations of ambient backscatter communications systems are discussed. Additionally, emerging applications of ambient backscatter communications are highlighted. Finally, we outline some open issues and future research directions.Index Terms-Ambient backscatter, wireless networks, bistatic backscatter, RFID, wireless energy harvesting, backscatter communications, and passive communications.

SummaryWireless energy harvesting enables wireless‐powered communications to accommodate data services in a self‐sustainable manner over a long operational time. Along with energy harvesting, an ambient backscatter technique helps a secondary transmitter reflect existing radio frequency (RF) signal sources to communicate with a secondary receiver when the primary channel (PC) is utilized. However, secondary system performance is significantly affected by factors such as the availability of the primary channel, imperfect spectrum sensing, and energy‐constrained problems. Therefore, we propose a novel approach for wireless‐powered cognitive radio networks (CRNs) to improve the transmission performance of secondary systems. To reduce the dependence of the secondary system on RF sources, in the paper, we provide a new paradigm by integrating ambient backscattering with both RF and non‐RF wireless‐powered communications to facilitate secondary communications. On the basis of the sensing result in a time slot, the secondary transmitter can dynamically select the operational action: (a) backscattering, (b) harvesting, or (c) transmitting to maximize the long‐term achievable data transmission rate at the secondary receiver. In addition, the optimal action set for CRNs with wireless‐powered ambient backscatter is selected by the partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP), which maximizes an expected transmission rate calculated over a number of subsequent time slots. The proposed scheme aims to improve long‐term transmission rate of CRNs with wireless‐powered ambient backscatter in comparison with conventional schemes where an action is taken only to maximize the immediate reward in every single time slot.
