Abstract

Wireless energy sharing is a novel convenient alternative to charge IoT devices. In this demo paper, we present a peer-to-peer wireless energy sharing platform. The platform enables users to exchange energy wirelessly with nearby IoT devices. The energy sharing platform allows IoT users to send and receive energy wirelessly. The platform consists of (i) a mobile application that monitors and synchronizes the energy transfer among two IoT devices and (ii) and a backend to register energy providers and consumers and store their energy transfer transactions. The eveloped framework allows the collection of a real wireless energy sharing dataset. A set of preliminary experiments has been conducted on the collected dataset to analyze and demonstrate the behavior of the current wireless energy sharing technology.
