Wireless sensors are everywhere. To address their energy supply, we proposed an end-to-end design for polar-coded integrated data and energy networking (IDEN), where the conventional signal processing modules, such as modulation/demodulation and channel decoding, are replaced by deep neural networks (DNNs). Moreover, the input-output relationship of an energy harvester (EH) is also modelled by a DNN. By jointly optimizing both the transmitter and the receiver as an autoencoder (AE), we minimize the bit-error-rate (BER) and maximize the harvested energy of the IDEN system, while satisfying the transmit power budget constraint determined by the normalization layer in the transmitter. Our simulation results demonstrate that the DNN aided end-to-end design conceived outperforms its conventional model-based counterpart both in terms of the harvested energy and the BER.

CO2-expanded liquids (CXLs) is a class of solvent systems giving relatively low viscosity in comparison to neat organic solvents. The challenge is to achieve a high overall polarity of the CXL, despite the presence of compressed liquid CO2. In this study, the relative static permittivity (epsilon(r)) was measured for binary and ternary one-phase mixtures of CO2 + green solvent using an in-line microfluidic device. In addition, Kamlet-Taft solvatochromic parameters were experimentally determined, allowing the characterization of the polarizability, acidity, and basicity. Novel data is shown for binary and ternary systems of CO2 expanded ethanol and ethyl lactate, with or without glycerol or water added, at moderate conditions of pressure and temperature (8 MPa and 35 degrees C). One-phase CXLs systems of a wide relative permittivity range (7.7-75.3) at lowered viscosity were enabled, by mixing different green solvents with CO2.
