Simultaneous lightwave information and power transfer (SLIPT) has been regarded as a promising technology to deal with the ever-growing energy consumption and data-rate demands in the Internet of Things (IoT). We propose a resonant beam based SLIPT system (RB-SLIPT), which deals with the conflict of high deliverable power and mobile receiver positioning with the existing SLIPT schemes. At first, we establish a mobile transmission channel model and depict the energy distribution in the channel.

Numerical evaluation demonstrates that the RB-SLIPT can deliver 5 W charging power and enable 1.5 Gbit/s achievable data rate with the moving range of 20-degree field of view (FOV) over 3 m distance. Thus, RB-SLIPT can simultaneously provide high-power energy and high-rate data transfer, and mobile receiver positioning capability.
