Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I would like to invite original and review articles to a Special Issue of the Journal Energies on the topic of “Wireless Power Transfer and RF Technologies.”
Wireless power transfer (WPT) technologies have been developed to wirelessly supply power to various devices such as mobile devices, electric vehicle, home appliance, and bikes. Despite several decades of progress in WPT technologies, the inductive WPT system still provides a short transmission distance as large as the size of transmitting/receiving coils. This is why various links and structures, from multiple links of the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) structure to RF links, have been attempted to expand the transmission distance. In particular, RF technologies have been highly anticipated as potentially able to realize breakthrough transmission distance.
The topics of this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, recent advances and emerging technologies for WPT, various applications of WPT systems, RF energy harvesting, and coil/antenna structures for WPT.
Dr. Dong-Wook Seo

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
