Battery-free Wi-Fi: Making Wi-Fi transmission simpler and practical

扫码查看
We present a complete low-power Wi-Fi backscatter communication solution which based on a single microcontroller, and for the first time we demonstrate the battery-free Wi-Fi device prototype which is built using commercial-off-the-shelf components on a printed circuit board。 It can operate on power that is harvested from ambient light, and its power consumption is 2-3 orders of magnitude lower than that of traditional active Wi-Fi chipset。 The instantaneous communication current is only 900uA, the standby current is 1。25uA, and the communication distance is 50 feet。 The solution we proposed not only has the advantages of system simplification, low cost, and no need for battery, but also enables the rapid development of Wi-Fi IoT products with existing commercial microcontrollers。
