Electrical Equivalent Modeling of the Reverse Electrowetting-on-Dielectric (REWOD) Based Transducer along with Highly Efficient Energy Harvesting Circuit Design towards Self-Powered Motion Sensor
Description:
Among various energy harvesting technologies reverse electrowetting-on-dielectric energy harvesting (REWOD) has been proved to harvest energy from low frequency motion such as many human motion activities (e.g. walking, running, jogging etc.). Voltage rectification and DC-DC boosting of low magnitude AC voltage from REWOD can be used to reliably self-power the wearable sensors. In this work, a commercial component-based rectifier and DC-DC converter is designed and experimentally verified, for …
