Abstract: A wireless power transfer and harvesting system that can be integrated with fabric is provided. The wireless power transfer and harvesting system includes a transmitter antenna for wirelessly transferring power and a receiver antenna operatively coupled to the transmitter antenna for receiving the power. At least one of the transmitter antenna and the receiver antenna can be formed with a shape of an anchor to inhibit effects of lateral and/or angular positional misalignments of the transmitter antenna or the receiver antenna upon power transfer efficiency of the system.

Abstract: Systems and methods for a low-cost smart textile electronic (tex-tronic) useful for wound healing assessment are provided. Data collection can be accomplished by reflection of the modulated wound-data to an interrogator. The RF modulation of the data can be done by a textile-based voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) that takes the electric signal provided by electrochemical sensing of the uric acid found in the wound fluid. The low-cost smart textile electronic uses low-cost materials and is easy to manufacture and use by any patient or medical professional.

Abstract: A circularly polarized horn antenna can comprise a rectangular waveguide, a hexagonal waveguide connected to the rectangular waveguide, a first transition part connected to the hexagonal waveguide, and a horn connected to the first transition part. The horn can include a first corrugated inner surface, and the first transition part can include a second corrugated inner surface.
