DESCRIPTION:In this presentation\, I will explore the fascinating realm of 
 wireless energy harvesting (WEH) and wireless power transfer (WPT). WEH fo
 cuses on efficiently obtaining energy from the wireless environment\, whil
 e WPT involves the wireless transmission of energy. The key device connect
 ing these two technologies is the rectifying antenna\, also known as the r
 ectenna.\n\nWhile WEH aims to harvest energy across a broad range of frequ
 encies\, WPT is designed for efficient energy transfer within specific fre
 quency bands. My talk will begin with an overview of rectenna systems deve
 loped thus far\, highlighting the challenges in maximizing power conversio
 n efficiency—the crucial performance metric for rectennas. Most current 
 research in this field is focused on RF and microwave frequencies. However
 \, I will discuss the exciting potential of extending this research to hig
 her frequencies\, particularly for harnessing solar energy—the largest e
 nergy source available to us.\n\nFurthermore\, I will present noteworthy r
 esearch conducted at the University of Liverpool\, showcasing innovative w
 ork in WEH and WPT. We will delve into diverse areas of exploration\, incl
 uding the integration of communication and wireless power transfer\, which
  holds promising prospects for the future.\n\nWireless energy harvesting a
 nd power transfer technologies have the potential to revolutionize our ene
 rgy landscape. By improving rectenna systems and venturing into higher fre
 quencies\, we can unlock new possibilities for wireless energy generation.
