Simultaneous Lightwave Information and Power Transfer (SLIPT)

We present the concept of simultaneous lightwave information and power transfer (SLIPT). Specifically, we propose novel and fundamental SLIPT strategies, which can be optimized and implemented in visible light or infrared communication systems, equipped with a simple solar panel at the receiver. These strategies are performed at the transmitter or at the receiver, or at both sides, and are named adjusting transmission, adjusting reception, and...
