This paper presents a novel wind/solar energy-harvesting device based on the inverted flag concept that combines flexible piezoelectric strips with flexible photovoltaic cells to simultaneously harvest both wind and solar energy. Three inverted flags built using off-theshelf components were experimentally investigated under controlled wind and illumination conditions to analyse their dynamics and electrical power generation capability. Our results provide an improved understanding of the dynamics of inverted flags that incorporate flexible piezoelectric strips and flexible solar panels, and indicate that the piezoelectric strips mainly increase the damping of the flags, while the solar panels act as an added mass. The power measurements show that the wind/solar energy-harvesting device proposed here is a viable concept that is capable of generating up to 3-4 mW of total power, enough to meet the demand of remote sensors and small-scale portable electronics, for wind speeds varying from 0 m/s (calm) to about 26 m/s (storm/whole gale) and 1.8 kLux constant light exposure, suggesting a rather diversified range of potential practical applications.

proposed to harvest the ultrasonic wave's energy using zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowire arrays, [9] the nanogenerator has entered a period of rapid development. [10][11][12][13] Various energies have been harvested using many kinds of nanogenerators, [4] such as triboelectric nanogenerators, [13] PENGs, [14] thermal-electric nanogenerators, [15] and photoelectric nanogenerators. [16] In addition, the as-harvested energy has various resources, such as wind, [17][18][19] heat energy, [20,21] solar power, [22] vibration, [23,24] mechanical energy, [25] electromagnetic waves, [26] chemical energy, [27] and water energy. [11,28,29] Therein, the nanogengerator induced from water-flow [30][31][32][33][34] and water evaporation [29,35] is a majority part of the water energy nanogenerator. Generally, the energy-produced principle from water-flow and water evaporation could be divided into two categories according to the surface properties of the nanogenerator. On the one hand, as the ionic solution

“…In these circumstances, if an antenna shows high radiation efficiency and gains then it is obvious from the results that the energy harvesting system is working at its full capacity. 29 Types of RF energy sources are dedicated RF sources and ambient RF sources. The power density of the dedicated RF source is relatively high than the other.…”

Passing through the transformation of wood to coal then to oil and gas, we find ourselves fortunate to witness the next major transformation, which will lead us to the "New Energy Era." Due to advancements in the field of electronics, energy harvesting has attracted great attraction from researchers and scientists to enhance portability and reliability with reduction in battery wastes. Moreover, wearable electronic devices are also becoming quite popular these days because of their usage in a broad range of applications like sports, health sciences, emergency, and so forth. In order to make sure smooth operation and to increase the working time span of these devices, it has become really important to bring wearable devices and radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting to the same platform. RF energy harvesting is one of the best suitable technology for wearable devices. The
