Abstract

This article analyzes and synthesizes wireless powered communication technologies, which are able to perform not only wireless data communication but also wireless energy harvesting. We also introduce the literature review of wireless powered communication technology, which is different methods and protocols of the system. The two main of proposed are Wireless Powered Communication (WPC), that is transmission of energy and the information separately and Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer (SWIPT), which transmission of energy and information simultaneously. Each method and each protocol has its advantages and the disadvantages of each. These are all the way for the future of wireless data communication networks such as the Internet of Thing (IoT) technology, that need to send data wirelessly with low power consumption and there are limits on how to change or charge the battery.
