TL;DR: The conclusion is that IoT and UAV are two of the most important technologies that transform traditional cultivation practices into a new perspective of intelligence in precision agriculture.

TL;DR: In this article, a wireless-powered uplink communication system with non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), consisting of one base station and multiple energy harvesting users, is studied.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors highlight the big data issues and challenges faced by the dynamic energy management (DEM) employed in smart grid networks and propose a promising direction for future research in the field.

TL;DR: Novel and fundamental SLIPT strategies are proposed, which can be optimized and implemented in visible light or infrared communication systems, equipped with a simple solar panel at the receiver, and considerably increase the harvested energy.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the statistics of the free space optics (FSO) communication channel between a hovering unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and a central unit, and developed a novel channel model for UAV-based FSO systems by quantifying the corresponding geometric and misalignment losses (GML), while taking into account the nonorthogonality of the laser beam and the random fluctuations of the position and orientation of the UAV.
