Title:
Revolutionizing IoT: The Synergy of Wake-Up Radio Technologies and Energy Harvesting in Green Wireless Networks
Date:
April 2nd
5:30 PM (1.5 hours)
Location:
5000 MacArthur Boulevard
Oakland, CA
Abstract:

 

Abstract: In this presentation, we delve into the transformative effects of cutting-edge technologies on the efficiency of wireless networks that underpin the Internet of Things (IoT), with a focus on eco-friendly wireless networks. We will unveil the latest developments in wake-up radio technologies equipped with semantic addressing, showcasing their ability to drastically reduce packet delivery times and achieve significant energy savings—by up to five orders of magnitude. Furthermore, we'll demonstrate how integrating energy harvesting techniques, such as solar and wind, with wake-up radios can lead to sustainable networked systems that rival the performance of traditional battery-powered nodes. Lastly, we'll explore the advantages of employing intelligent forwarding methods based on optimized learning algorithms. While acknowledging the noticeable costs associated with such methods, we'll also make a case for employing more cost-effective heuristic approaches derived from learning-based models.
