“…As far as energy management is concerned, EH in industrial applications can be achieved in different ways [37], [38], [39], [40], [41]; we focus here on WPT, owing to its flexibility. In [42] a magnetically coupled resonance WPT for LPWAN applications has been tested. However, such work does not consider the interference effect between WPT and data communication.…”

The fourth industrial revolution is paving the way for Industrial Internet of Things applications where large number of wireless nodes, equipped with sensors and actuators, monitor the production cycle of industrial goods. This paper proposes and analyses LoRaIN, a network architecture and MAC-layer protocol thought for on-demand monitoring of industrial machines. Our proprietary system is an energy-efficient, reliable and scalable solution, where the protocol is built on top of LoRa at 2.4 GHz. Indeed, the low-power characteristics of LoRa allow to reduce energy consumption, while Wireless Power Transfer is used to recharge batteries, avoiding periodic battery replacement. High reliability is obtained through the joint use of Frequency and Time Division Multiple Access. A dynamic LoRaIN scheduler manages the communication and recharging phases depending on the tasks assigned to the nodes, as well as the number of monitoring devices. Performance is measured in terms of network throughput, energy consumption and latency. Results demonstrate that the proposed solution is suitable for monitoring applications of industry machines.

“…A final contribution is provided in [67]: this paper presents a theoretical discussion concerning wireless power transfer in general, and comparing different techniques: inductive coupling, ultra-dense millimetre-wave small cells and Magnetically Coupled Resonance (MCR). A solution based on this last technique (i.e., MCR), exploiting ferrite structures, is then presented and discussed, albeit a practical implementation of the system is not provided.…”

The emergence of Internet of Things (IoT) architectures and applications has been the driver for a rapid growth in wireless technologies for the Machine-to-Machine domain. In this context, a crucial role is being played by the so-called Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWANs), a bunch of transmission technologies developed to satisfy three main system requirements: low cost, wide transmission range, and low power consumption. This last requirement is especially crucial as IoT infrastructures should operate for long periods on limited quantities of energy: to cope with this limitation, energy harvesting is being applied every day more frequently, and several different techniques are being tested for LPWAN systems. The aim of this survey paper is to provide a detailed overview of the the existing LPWAN systems relying on energy harvesting for their powering. In this context, the different LPWAN technologies and protocols will be discussed and, for each technology, the applied energy harvesting techniques will be described as well as the architecture of the power management units when present.
