Wireless Power Transmission via Solar Power Satellite (EEE/ECE Project)

A major problem facing Planet Earth is provision of an adequate supply of clean energy. It has been that we face “…three simultaneous challenges — population growth, resource consumption, and environmental degradation — all converging particularly in

Low Power Smartdust Receiver with Novel Applications and Improvements of an RF Power Harvesting Circuit (Electronics Project)

Smartdust is the evolution of wireless sensor networks to cubic centimeter dimensions or less. Smartdust systems have advantages in cost, flexibility, and rapid deployment that make them ideal for many

Study of Solar/Biogas Hybrid Power Generation (Electronics Project)

This thesis proposes a solar photovoltaic and biogas hybrid system for generation of electricity to overcome from global warming effect, economic and

Parasitic Power Harvesting in Shoes (Electronics Project)

As the power requirements for microelectronics continue decreasing, environmental energy sources can begin to replace batteries in certain wearable subsystems. In this spirit, this paper examines three different devices that can be built into a shoe, (where excess energy is … Read more »

Piezo-electric Power Scavenging for Mining Applications (ECE/EEE Project)

The growing need of creating a network of sensors in critical environment to monitor, sense and alert an operator about the environment gives rise to the research work carried out in the area of power supply to these sensors. Wireless … Read more »

A comparison of power harvesting techniques and related energy storage issues

Power harvesting, energy harvesting, power scavenging, and energy scavenging are four terms commonly used to describe the process of extracting useful electrical energy from other ambient energy sources using special materials called transducers that have the ability to convert one … Read more »

Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting Devices for Recharging Batteries

Piezoelectric materials can be used as a means of transforming ambient vibrations into electrical energy that can be stored and used to power other devices. With the recent surge of micro scale devices, piezoelectric power generation can provide a convenient … Read more »
