2. 1. RF Wireless Power Transfer for IoT Applications

   Author : Morteza Tavana; Emil Björnson; Jens Zander; Ayça Özçelikkale; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electronic waste; Energy harvesting; Internet of things; transceivers; wireless power transfer; wireless sensor networks; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

   Abstract : With the emergence of the Internet of things (IoT) networks, the replacement of batteries for IoT devices became challenging. In particular, the battery replacement is more expensive and cumbersome for scenarios where there are many IoT devices; or where the IoT devices are in unreachable locations; or when they have to be replaced often.

4. 2. High Efficiency Inductive Power Transfer Systems for Vehicle Charging

   Author : Daniel Pehrman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dual-active bridge; power flow control; bi-directional; electric vehicles; electromagnetic fields; inductive power transfer; high efficiency; high power; three-phase;

   Abstract : Awareness of climate change due to greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution has led to a transition from internal combustion engine vehicles to electric vehicles. Wireless charging by inductive power transfer is a promising solution for charging electric vehicles. READ MORE

5. 3. Improving Low-Power Wireless Protocols with Timing-Accurate Simulation

   Author : Fredrik Österlind; Thiemo Voigt; Adam Dunkels; Per Gunningberg; Tarek F. Abdelzaher; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Low-Power Wireless Protocols; Wireless Sensor Networks; Contiki; Cooja; Simulation; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot datorkommunikation; Computer Science with specialization in Computer Communication;

   Abstract : Low-power wireless technology enables numerous applications in areas from environmental monitoring and smart cities, to healthcare and recycling. But resource-constraints and the distributed nature of applications make low-power wireless networks difficult to develop and understand, resulting in increased development time, poor performance, software bugs, or even network failures.

6. 4. Inverse and optimization problems in electromagnetics -- a finite-element method perspective

   Author : JOHAN WINGES; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; microwave measurements; computational electromagnetics; finite element method; optimization; inductive power transfer; compressed sensing; wireless power; brick-tetrahedron hybrid; parameter estimation; inverse problems;

   Abstract : In this thesis, a selection of inverse and optimization problems are studied where the finite element method (FEM) serves as a comprehensive tool to solve electromagnetic field problems that lack an analytic solution. The inverse problems are typically formulated in terms of an optimization problem where the misfit between a measurement and the corresponding result of a computational model is minimized. READ MORE

7. 5. Mobility and Multi-channel Communications in Low-power Wireless Networks

   Author : António Gonga; Mikael Johansson; Riku Jäntti; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mobility; Multi-channel communications; Neighbor Discovery; MAC Protocols; Low-power Wireless Networks; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : The prospect of replacing existing fixed networks with cheap, flexible and evenmobile low-power wireless network has been a strong research driver in recent years.However, many challenges still exist: reliability is hampered by unstable and burstycommunication links; the wireless medium is getting congested by an increasingnumber of wireless devices; and life-times are limited due to difficulties in developingefficient duty-cycling mechanisms.
