Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) shall be able to incorporate transparently and seamlessly a large number of different and heterogeneous end systems, while providing open access to selected subsets of data for the development of a plethora of digital services. Building a general architecture for the IoT is hence a very complex task, mainly because of the extremely large variety of devices, link layer technologies, and services that may be involved in such a system. In this paper we focus specifically to an urban IoT systems that, while still being quite a broad category, are characterized by their specific application domain. Urban IoTs, in fact, are designed to support the Smart City vision, which aims at exploiting the most advanced communication technologies to support added-value services for the administration of the city and for the citizens.

Millimeter Wave Energy Harvesting

TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered a scenario where low-power devices extract energy and/or information from the mmWave signals and derived analytical expressions for the energy coverage probability, the average harvested power, and the overall (energy and information) coverage probability at a typical wireless-powered device in terms of the BS density, the antenna geometry parameters, and channel parameters.
