Beschreibung

Solar cells are the most common energy scavengers due to their ease of use, reliability and wide range of applications wherever the light is present. One of such applications is a wireless autonomous sensor network, where each sensor node tends to be as small as possible. In this paper, we describe a way to optimize the optical energy harvesting process using as an example a power management IC BQ25570. We introduce an approach to calculate the minimal solar cell area and storage capacitance, which are necessary to supply the module in the active mode for a specified time period and to minimize the charging time.
