Abstract

Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) is a promising technology for RF wireless power transfer (WPT) as it is capable of beamforming and beam focusing without using active and power-hungry components. In this paper, we propose a beam scanning method for the RF WPT systems with an RIS and multi-antenna transmitter/receiver. Furthermore, we build a real-life testbed of the RIS-aided WPT system and verify the proposed algorithm. The experimental results have shown that an RIS can greatly improve the end-to-end WPT efficiency.
