چکیده

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) enable many vital applications ranging from environmental monitoring to human health control. Main research efforts in the WSNs focused on minimizing energy consumption because wireless sensor nodes are mostly powered by batteries which are usually hard to replace. Recent research on long-lasting WSNs is proposing energy harvesters combined with rechargeable batteries and super capacitors (for energy storage) as the key enabler to “perpetual” WSN operations, in this survey, we address Energy Harvesting Methodologies based on the related literature.
