Energy Harvesting in Electromagnetic Nanonetworks

Abstract

The ability of nanonetworks to exploit harvested energy from ambient sources efficiently and economically will determine the extent of their future application. Research has already identified processes, issues, and challenges for these networks, most of which center on the energy-harvesting process, optimal energy consumption, and communication protocols.
