摘要
In this paper, we propose the design, fabrication and experiments of a macro-scale electrostatic vibration energy harvester (e-VEH), pre-charged wirelessly for the first time with a 2.4-GHz Cockcroft-Walton rectenna. The rectenna is designed and optimized to operate at low power densities and provide high voltage levels: 0.5V at 0.76 mu W/cm(2) and 1V at 1.53 mu W/cm(2). The e-VEH uses a Bennet doubler as a conditioning circuit. Experiments show a 23-V voltage across the transducer terminal, when the harvester is excited at 25Hz by 1.5 gof external acceleration. An accumulated energy of 275 mu J and a maximum available power of 0.4 mu W are achieved. (C) 2016 Academie des sciences. Published by Elsevier Masson SAS.
