Theoretical Analysis of Nonlinear Energy Harvesting From Wireless Mobile Nodes

This letter provides a theoretical analysis of the radio signal energy harvested from wireless mobile nodes. A nonlinear energy harvesting model based on the research results is proposed. This model is practical but tractable through stochastic geometry. A Gauss-Markov model is used as a mobility model, one that is versatile and can cover various mobile scenarios. The closed form formulas of the first and second moments of the total energy harvested are derived for a combination of these models.
