Abstract
There is a dense network of radio signals around us today. Although they are invisible and have low energy, their density is increasing day by day. While discussing the effects of radio signals in terms of health, these intense signals can also have positive uses in daily life. Energy harvesting from RF signals is one of the methods applied in recent years. Although RF signals have low energy, the energy that can be produced when the density increases can be used for charging devices with low energy needs. In this study, an application was proposed to determine the RF signal intensities in city regions to determine the amount of energy harvest from RF signals and then to present this information to the users via a Geographical Information System.
