RF Energy Harvesting

The rapid evolution of wireless technology has led to the proliferation of small, low-power IoT devices, often constrained by traditional battery limitations, resulting in size, weight, and maintenance challenges. In response, ambient radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting has emerged as a promising solution to power IoT devices using RF energy from the environment. However, optimizing the placement of energy harvesters is crucial for maximizing energy reception.

This study was conducted in Mayaguez – Puerto Rico, and an area of around 18 Km2 was covered, which were determined using the following classification of places:

·         Main Avenues: Wide public ways that has hospitals, vegetation, buildings, on either side

·         Open Places: Mall parking lots and public plazas

·         Streets & Roads: Dense residential and commercial areas on both sides
