Powering device-to-device (D2D) communications by the radio frequency (RF) energy, harvested from the ambient interference of the underlaid cellular network, improves the energy efficiency of the network. In the recent works, the D2D transmitters can successfully communicate with their intended receivers only when there is sufficient harvested energy to transmit over the desired distance. In this paper, we propose a method to improve the network performance by allowing the D2D users to use multiple hops when harvested energy is insufficient for a direct communication. We evaluate the performance of the system in terms of the signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) outage probability at a D2D receiver and the transmission probability of a D2D user. The numerical analysis shows that the two-hop D2D communication outperforms the direct D2D communication.
