The binary energy harvesting channel with on-off fading

A noiseless binary energy harvesting channel with on-off fading is considered. When causal fading state information is available at the transmitter only, an equivalent timing channel with additive geometric noise and noise information known at the transmitter is obtained. In this channel, the transmitter´s strategy is a stopping rule with respect to the channel fade levels given the message and the additive noise. Next, capacity when energy arrival information is available at the receiver and capacity when both energy arrival and fading information are available at the receiver are obtained. Additionally, several achievable schemes are proposed and evaluated.
