More \u2018things\u2019 are expected to be interconnected for improving productivity efficiency and increasing comforts of life. Further reduction of size, complexity, and power consumption of IoT devices can enable the deployment of tens or even hundreds of billion IoT devices for various applications and provide added value across the entire value chain. It is impossible to power all the IoT devices by battery that needs to be replaced or recharged manually, which leads to high maintenance cost, serious environmental issues, and even safety hazards for some use cases (e.g., wireless sensor in electric power and petroleum industry). _x000D_\nMost of the existing wireless communication devices are powered by battery that needs to be replaced or recharged manually. The automation and digitalization of various industries open numbers of new markets requiring new IoT technologies of supporting batteryless devices with no energy storage capability or devices with energy storage that do not need to be replaced or recharged manually. The form factor of such devices must be reasonably small to convey the validity of target use cases. _x000D_\nTR 22.840 and TS 22.369 have been developed by SA1 to capture use cases, traffic scenarios, device constraints of ambient power-enabled Internet of Things and identify new potential service requirements as well as new KPIs. SA1 considered devices being either battery-less or with limited energy storage capability (i.e., using a capacitor) and the energy is provided through the harvesting of radio waves, light, motion, heat, or any other power source that could be seen suitable._x000D_\nConsidering the limited size and complexity required by practical applications for batteryless devices with no energy storage capability or devices with limited energy storage that do not need to be replaced or recharged manually, the output power of energy harvester is typically from 1\u00b5W to a few hundreds of \u00b5W. Existing cellular devices may not work well with energy harvesting due to their peak power consumption of higher than 10mW. _x000D_\nAn example type of application in TR 22.840 and TS 22.369 is asset identification or inventory, which presently has to resort mainly to barcode and RFID in most industries. The main advantage of these two technologies is the ultra-low complexity and small form factor of the tags. However, the limited reading range of a few meters usually requires handheld scanning which leads to labor intensive and time-consuming operations, or RFID portals\/gates which leads to costly deployments. Moreover, the lack of interference management scheme results in severe interference between RFID readers and capacity problems, especially in case of dense deployment. It is hard to support large-scale network with seamless coverage for RFID. _x000D_\nRAN WGs have set up a Rel-19 WI on solutions for Ambient IoT (Internet of Things) in NR (Ambient_IoT_Solutions) at RP#106 (December 2024) to introduce a new IoT technology to open new markets within 3GPP systems, whose number of connections and\/or device density can be orders of magnitude higher than existing 3GPP IoT technologies.
