The team initially designed an antenna out of coiled copper wire to collect the leaked RF and experimented with various designs, from the thickness of the wire to the number of times it was coiled. If this leaked RF energy could be harvested, then it could be put to use. The design is cheap – less than fifty cents,” note the authors.
