Abstract

We investigate the impact of the channel statistics on the average harvested energy when directive lightwave power transfer (DLPT) is used for both indoor and outdoor environments. More specifically, for the indoor scenario, the channel randomness is subject to misalignment effects, while for the outdoor one, atmospheric turbulence is further considered. For both scenarios, closed-form expressions are extracted for the average harvested power, validated via Monte Carlo simulations. Interestingly, the final expressions help to assess the energy harvesting capabilities of a DLPT system and provide valuable insights for hardware implementation.
