Wireless Energy Harvesting and Power Transfer for Communications and Networks
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advancements in wireless communication systems have motivated both academics and industries to work toward sustainable and long-lasting networks with low energy cost. Energy harvesting is a potential solution to overcome the issues of high data traffic demand, high energy consumption, complex infrastructures, and device battery limitations. Energy harvesting along with wireless information and power transfer are futuristic options to tailor diversified networks and devices in 6G communication systems.
This Topic primarily focuses on wireless energy harvesting solutions for incorporating complex scenarios and varied ranges of communication networks. This can include energy harvesting in 5G/6G communication systems with a focus on machine-type networks, machine-learning-based techniques, signal processing, and distributed complex systems. Original research in pertinent fields, which has not yet been published or is not presently being considered by another publication, is encouraged such as but not limited to the following.
- Energy harvesting wireless communications and networks.
- Wirelessly powered communications and networks.
- Centralized and distributed power transfer in wireless communications.
- Simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT).
- RF, millimeter wave, and THz energy harvesting, power transfer, and SWIPT.
- Massive MIMO- and RIS-aided energy harvesting, power transfer, and SWIPT.
- Waveform design for energy harvesting, power transfer, and SWIPT.
- Signal processing for energy harvesting, power transfer, and SWIPT.
- Machine learning for energy harvesting, power transfer, and SWIPT.
- Circuits and systems for energy harvesting, power transfer, and SWIPT.
- Wireless energy harvesting and power transfer for Internet of Things.
- Wireless energy harvesting and power transfer for sensor networks.
- Wireless energy harvesting and power transfer for machine-type networks.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.
MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:
- Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
- Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
- Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
- Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
- Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
