TL;DR: A unified theoretical approach is first introduced, based on a two-port-equivalent circuit representation, to describe the wireless power transfer link when the transmitter and the receiver are either in the near-field or in the far-field region reciprocally.

TL;DR: This paper aims to present WPT technology in an integrated way, addressing state-of-the-art and challenges, and to discuss future R&D perspectives summarizing recent activities in Europe.

TL;DR: The theoretical foundations and numerical performance of an advanced nonlinear circuit simulator based on the piecewise harmonic balance (HB) technique are discussed in this paper, where the exact computation of the Jacobian matrix for Newton-iteration based HB simulation and the related conversion-matrix technique for fast mixer analysis are formulated in a general form.

TL;DR: A novel compact, lightweight and highly efficient tetra-band rectenna, able to harvest RF energy from GSM 900, GSM 1800, UMTS and WiFi sources available in the ambient, and tested in terms of stored energy while harvesting from a mobile cell-phone call.

TL;DR: This work envisions the future world as an Internet of Things/Internet of Everything in terms of both a consumer IoT/IoE and the Industrial IoT (interconnectedness to improve business-to-business services, mainly through machineto-machine interactions).
