Experimental Validation of the Piezoelectric Energy Harvester for Wearable Devices

摘要

This paper presents the experimental validation of the piezoelectric array in harvesting the vibration energy fr,om human activity.This experiment is aimed to choose the best array topology of piezoelectric energy harvesting(PEH)for replacing the battery on our wearable devices.Based on our experiments,the no-load characteristic of PZT array shows the big hope for future implementation on wearable devices.
