Abstract

In order to eliminate the stand-by power of various remote-control device, the paper proposes an innovative way of passive wake-up to power-off device based on microwave power transmission (MPT). The experimental results show that MPT not only can achieve the goal of passive wake-up, but also can reach further remote-control range than the traditional way of power recovery.
