Energy generation in THz

The proposal research is focused on the Radio Frequency (RF) devices development (sensors and antennas, basically), which allow to control and monitoring in real time the different energy status inside the buildings. So, a waste of energy will be monitoring in the console. On the other hand, another important point in the research project is the design and development of the different elements based on Harvesting and rectennas, which allow to obtain energy from different eco-source. About the recetennas design, the main objective is to convert the electromagnetic power into direct current (DC) to feed the rest of the elements.
