【Abstract】 This paper studies the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV) assisted Wireless Power Transfer(WPT) system, where the UAV acts as an energy transmitter to transmit Radio Frequency(RF) energy for ground devices. We aim to maximize the total energy received by all devices. However, the energy beam involved in the optimization problem and the hovering position of the UAV are non-convex and difficult to solve. To solve this problem, we propose an iterative algorithm for joint multi-beam design and UAV position optimization to optimize beam pattern, two-dimensional position, and flight altitude of UAV in turn. Specifically, a multi-beam antenna array is designed using the Butler Matrix to provide a high-gain, wide-coverage energy beam. Then, the exhaustive algorithm is used to find the optimal two-dimensional position of the UAV, and the optimal flight height of the UAV is obtained through the monotonicity theory. Finally, the simulation results verify that the theory can significantly improve the performance in terms of wireless energy transfer.更多还原
