Renewable energy re-distribution via multiscale IoT for 6G-oriented green highway management by Rahman, Md Arafatur, Mukta, Marufa Yeasmin, Asyhari, Taufiq, Moustafa, Nour, Patwary, Mohammad Nuruzzaman, Yousuf, Abu, Razzak, Muhammad Imran, Gupta, Brij Bhooshan

“…By exploiting viable gathering of massive renewable energy data using the Internet of Things (IoT), this paper proposes a framework for improved highway-energy management based on the unmanned aerial vehicle-assisted wireless energy re-distribution of the harvested renewable energy. Combining both massive low-rate sensing with high-speed 6G-envisioned transmission for data aggregation, the IoT architecture is of multi-scale, consisting of: i) global data exchange and analytics for energy mapping, re-distribution planning and forecasting, and ii) local data sensing and processing at individual highway lampposts for micro-energy management. …”
