Power management is an important concern in sensor networks, because a tethered energy infrastructure is usually not available and an obvious concern is to use the available battery energy efficiently. However, in some of the sensor networking appli
Energy consumption is an important issue in the design of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) which typically rely on portable energy sources like batteries for power. Recent advances in ambient energy harvesting technologies have made it possible for s
Energy harvesting wireless sensor network (EH-WSN) is promising in applications, however the frequent occurrence of temporal death of nodes, due to the limited harvesting capability, presents a difficulty in meeting the quality-of-service requiremen
For amplify-and-forward multi-antenna relay networks with energy harvesting (EH) constraint, we study the optimal relay beamforming problem which maximizes the achievable rate from source to information-decoding receiver subject to the transmit power
To apply MEMS energy harvesting elements in low wind speed environments, it is significant to decrease the critical wind speeds. Impact is used to decrease the applicable wind speeds of flow-induced-vibration wind energy harvesting systems with MEMS
Based on SMIC 0.18 mu m standard CMOS technology, an input-powered vibrational energy harvesting interface circuit is proposed. It can be applied in energy harvesting devices for the extremely low voltage and high conversion rate. The simulation resu
