Motivated by the damage due to heating in sensor operation, we consider the throughput optimal offline data scheduling problem in an energy harvesting transmitter, such that the resulting temperature remains below a critical level. We model the temperature dynamics of the transmitter as a linear system and determine the optimal transmit power policy under such temperature constraints as well as energy harvesting constraints over an additive white Gaussian noise channel. We first derive the structural properties of the solution for the general case with multiple energy arrivals. We show that the optimal power policy is piecewise monotone decreasing with possible jumps at the energy harvesting instants. We derive analytical expressions for the optimal solution in the single energy arrival case. We show that, in the single energy arrival case, the optimal power is monotone decreasing, the resulting temperature is monotone increasing, and both remain constant after the temperature hits the critical level. We then generalize the solution for the multiple energy arrival case.
