University of Southampton Malaysia Alumnus Secured a £200,000 Grant from the Government Office for Science and the Royal Academy of Engineering

The University of Southampton Malaysia would like to celebrate the achievement of our proud alumnus, Dr. Mahmoud Wagih Mohamed for securing a £200,000 grant from the Government Office for Science and the Royal Academy of Engineering. 

Harvesting energy from sunlight or vibrations could lead to battery-free electronics. Yet, it can only generate sufficient output where ambient power is present. Dr. Wagih's research aims to enable a single energy-harvesting source to power many co-located ‘satellite’ systems through safe, robust and efficient radio frequency power transmission.

This research is carried out alongside industrial partners including the semiconductor leader Arm, creating new RF-powered computers. Perpetuum, part of Hitachi Rail, aims to combine RF power transmission with energy harvesting for long-term condition monitoring.
