Smart Energy Conservation System through Remote Power Transferring for Wireless Sensor Devices

Pascual Restrepo, S Lou

Abstract


Currently, wireless sensor networks are an active research field mainly because of their application potential. The latest developments in wireless communication and microelectronic technology have realized the interconnection between intelligent monitoring and control devices in the home space. The main goal of implementing this technology is to reduce the cost factor of charging equipment and prevent power theft and power loss during transmission and distribution. The main cause of power loss in the transmission and distribution process is the resistance of the wires used in the power grid. To overcome this problem, the system uses air to transfer energy from one place to another. You can save even more energy by implementing this technology in pervasive computing. In addition, no physical connection is required in complex areas and provides secure and effective power transfer. Some external energy sources used for energy harvesting include solar energy, wind energy, temperature gradients, and radio frequencies.
