Session 12 Overview: Innovations in Low-Power and Secure IoT Technology Directions Subcommittee

Emerging IoT systems demand higher levels of energy-efficiency and security for mobile applications. The first paper describes a low-power event-driven wake-up IC, followed by a paper proposing reflective and MIMO antenna arrays to improve the efficiency of Wi-Fi backscattering systems. The final paper addresses key security challenges by presenting an advanced PUF solution using spectral regrowth of a power amplifier as the RF fingerprint for IoT devices.
