Speech Title: Towards Batteryless Wireless Connectivity for Internet of Everything
Abstract: This talk covers the background of batteryless short-range wireless connectivity for Internet-of-Everything (IoE), and the design of Bluetooth LE receivers using no RF transconductor (gm), enabling high linearity, reasonable noise figure and ultra-low-power consumption. The examples pace the way to build a greener world of energy-autonomous wireless radios for the IoE era.
