Abstract

With the fast developments of small dimension, low cost and low power circuit and sensor, energy supply is becoming a big barrier to wireless sensor networks applications in engineering, and the vibration energy harvester which not only gathering circumstance energy, but also lessening machine harm is an effective solving way. Framework of energy harvesting based wireless sensors networks is designed. And Geometric model, structural parameters, output results and technical characteristics of various vibration energy harvesters are particular introduced in recent three years. Finally future research needs and challenges of vibration energy harvesters for wireless sensor networks are simple analyzed.
