Energy harvesting – small scale energy production from ambient sources
Energy harvesting – the collection of otherwise unexploited energy in the local environment – is attracting increasing attention for the powering of electronic devices. While the power levels that can be reached are typically modest (microwatts to milliwatts), the key motivation is to avoid the need for battery replacement or recharging in portable or inaccessible devices. Wireless sensor netwo...
متن کاملEnergy harvesting vibration sources for microsystems applications
This paper reviews the state-of-the art in vibration energy harvesting for wireless, self-powered microsystems. Vibration-powered generators are typically, although not exclusively, inertial spring and mass systems. The characteristic equations for inertial-based generators are presented, along with the specific damping equations that relate to the three main transduction mechanisms employed to...
متن کاملRadio Frequency Energy Harvesting - Sources and Techniques
Energy harvesting technology is attracting huge attention and holds a promising future for generating electrical power. This process offers various environmentally friendly al‐ ternative energy sources. Especially, radio frequency (RF) energy has interesting key at‐ tributes that make it very attractive for low-power consumer electronics and wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Ambient RF energy co...
متن کاملEnergy Harvesting Technology for Maintenance-free Sensors
Energy harvesting is a technology that gathers energy such as sunlight, artificial light, and vibration and heat from machinery to obtain electric power. Applying this technology to wireless sensor modules in a machine-to-machine (M2M) wireless sensor network will eliminate the need for grid-based power and primary batteries and create new value in the form of maintenance-free, battery-free, an...
متن کاملEnergy Harvesting Using Piezoelectric Nanowires-A Correspondence on "Energy Harvesting Using Nanowires?" by Alexe et al
We have demonstrated an innovative approach to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy by piezoelectric zinc oxide nanowire (NW) arrays. The mechanism of the nanogenerator (NG) relies on the coupling of piezoelectric and semiconducting dual properties of ZnO as well as the elegant rectifying function of the Schottky barrier formed between the metal tip and the NW. Alexe et al. have rec...
