Energy Harvesting Unit Design for Body Area Networks
Abstract
Body
Area Networks has taken its place in today's scientific world as a fundamental
part of the issues of remote health monitoring and Internet of Things. The
signals measured by the sensor nodes in or around the body are transmited the
information about the health of the individual to the experts in remote. Body
Area Networks have problems similar to other types of networks, and energy
consumption is one of the main problems. Body Area Networks generally involve
wireless communication and require the energy units (batteries, acumulator, and
etc.) to measure of nodes while the person is on the move. For this reason, it
is not possible to change the energy unit at any time. In order to eliminate
the energy problem of the Body Area Network, the energy harvesting unit is
developed in this study. This unit consisting of piezoelectric material and
peltier meets the energy needs of the Body Area Network.
