Energy-harvesting and wireless power transfer are quickly becoming game-changing technologies for wireless systems. By eliminating bulky batteries, decoupling node deployments from the power grid, and allowing wireless nodes to operate potentially forever in a maintenance-free manner, energy harvesting and remotely powered wireless systems enable many exciting deployment models and Internet of Things (IoT) applications, ranging from in-body and personal health monitoring to smart homes and transportation systems, to automation and monitoring in smart grids.
This workshop invites contributions in energy harvesting and remotely powered communication, ranging from communication, information and network theoretic analysis to system design and experimentation.
