 INTRODUCTION

• Even the companies that sell smart phones at phenomenal rates have the
issue of battery’s performance.
• The performance is better as compared to others, but it is still a mystery if
discussed in terms of long life.
 WHAT IS BATTERYLESS PHONE ?

• Needed no battery.
• Phone used to only calling function.
• device uses a minute photo diode to harvest energy from the ambient light or
RF sources.
• It operate the RF wave to convert DC power
Conversion of RF to DC power
WORKING

• Antenna receive RF wave.

• RF to DC converter convert radio frequency signal

to DC.

• Power condition check the required voltage and fed

to the output
 CONVERSION OF SIGNALS TO POWER

• A photo diode for converting ambient signals and

•
light into current.

• It is a semiconductor, with p-n junction diode and an

intrinsic layer between two junctions.

• When photons of energy greater than 1.1 electron volt

strike the diode, electron-hole pairs are
originated
BACK SCATTER
 HOW SOLAR CELL WORKS ?

• Solar cell constitutes of P-N junction diode, which is

assembled from Silicon and Germanium.

• This process constructs open space for light to fall on P layer

and hence underlying the P-N junction.

• The bottom of N layer comprises of current assembling

electrode.

• When a light photon arrives at the junction, they exhilarate

electrons from valence band to conduction band.
A solar cell used as in the
battery less phone
ADVANTAGES

• Conserves Electricity

• Saves Time

• Low Power Consumption

• No Charging Issues
LIMITATIONS

• Limited range

• Use of solar cell

• Lacking multiple operational features

FUTURE SCOPE
• Increase in the range

• Encryption

• Video streming

• Internet access

• Low power E-ink display

CONCLUSION

• It was extremely astonishing to witness that a group of

researchers have finally developed a phone that uses no
power.

• which means the phone has no battery and harnesses energy

from ambient signals and light sources.

• That convert light and signal strength into a current which is

furthermore converted into few microwatts of power.

V With the phone, we can just dial a number and call to another
person.
