How can we optimize Energy Harvesting systems with ultra-low-power management circuit? Maximum power point tracking (MPPT)? Active rectifier? Impedance matching?
Energy harvesting is a very fast growing research field and soon a market readily available solution for low power electronic devices like wireless sensor network, mobile gadgets, etc. These electronic devices, used in different application areas like military, human lifestyle, disaster management, etc., are highly lack of reliable energy sources, able to sustain their operational lifetime for a prolong period of time. Energy Harvesting (EH) is the key to the limited energy lock of batteries. However, how can we optimize these EH systems? By some ultra-low-power management circuitries like maximum power point tracking (MPPT), active rectifier, impedance matching, etc?
