Robust IoT Communication and Sensing with Extreme Efficiency

The Internet of Things (IoT) has the potential to revolutionize our world by connecting the physical and digital worlds. However, its current reliance on battery-powered devices limits scalability and raises environmental concerns. My research aims to overcome these challenges by developing battery-free, cost-effective IoT solutions, necessitating a rethinking of wireless networking. In Consumer IoT, I focused on ultra-low-power communication with novel radio architectures and an asymmetric communication scheme that enables existing Wi-Fi infrastructure to connect IoT devices. In Industrial IoT, I addressed reliability with a magnetic RFID system and robust RFID localization design, reducing object identification errors. These innovations resolve reliability issues that have hindered battery-free RFID adoption in the industry. Additionally, I've contributed to massive MIMO millimeter-wave software-defined radio and wireless brain-machine interfaces, opening new possibilities for next-gen IoT applications. By building on these innovations, we can unlock the potential of battery-free IoT, the Internet of Bodies, and experimental wireless infrastructures, offering a robust, sustainable, and scalable IoT future.
