Special Issue Information
Dear Colleague,
Background:
An increased interest in the design and development of smart energy harvesting systems has been shown over the past decade. This is due to the wide spread of Internet of Things sensors in many applications, including healthcare, consumer electronics, and agriculture, among others. The battery of such wireless sensory nodes could drain a significant amount of power and thus require recharging from time to time to become self-powered and autonomous. With the recent advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms, this has much to offer in the design of highly efficient absorbers and electromagnetic energy harvesters.
Aim and scope:
This Special Issue aims to present state-of-the art recent trends on the design and development of artificial-intelligence-based symmetric absorbers and energy harvesting structures from fundamental applied research to system-level integration.
Cutting-edge research:
The proposed Special Issue aims to present a cutting-edge research topic focusing on the demands for the development of intelligent energy harvesting solutions. The focus on this issue will be on electromagnetic-based absorbers and harvesters. Although more emphasis will be on electromagnetic radio frequency, microwave and terahertz, this Special Issue can cover other applications with the goal of developing practical intelligent energy harvesting solutions. We also welcome review articles summarizing the current state of a particular topic in the field of energy harvesting.
What kind of papers we are soliciting:
We are inviting submissions to this Special Issue of Symmetry on recent advances in the field of symmetric electromagnetic energy harvesting and absorbers for healthcare, agriculture, sensors design, wireless charging, unmanned aerial vehicles, among others.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Analysis and modeling of energy harvesters;
- Artificial intelligence in energy harvesting;
- Wearable energy harvesting;
- RF/microwave energy harvesting;
- Power management for energy harvesting systems;
- Applications and design innovations of energy harvesting systems.
