This project aims to develop the pioneering antenna technologies for far-field wireless power transfer (WPT) applications. New scientific and advanced engineering methodologies will be created to address the related fundamental technical challenges. Expected outcomes include the advanced multi-functional antenna arrays that will broadcast electromagnetic energy to remote IoT elements and the ultra-compact, highly efficient rectennas that will convert it to empower the sensor and communications functions seamlessly integrated into them. The intended first zero-waste battery-free wirelessly powered IoT ecosystems will support the realisation of the Australian Government’s goal to pursue sustainable and environmental-friendly economic growth.Read moreRead less
