Original abstract

This paper deals with simulation modelling of a vibration power generator and verification of a complex generator model for prediction of harvested power. The vibration power generator is an electromagnetic energy harvesting device which uses an ambient energy on mechanical vibrations for generating useful electrical energy. This energy harvesting device presents a complex mechatronic system and it consists of resonance mechanism, electromechanical converter, power management (electronics and energy storage) and powered device. When this system is placed in environment with sufficient mechanical vibration, the generator harvests energy and it can be use as autonomous source of electrical energy for powering of wireless sensors or remote application in this environment. The verified simulation model of this device can provide a prediction of possible harvested power without any physical position of this device in a vibratory environment, only acceleration measurement is used as input.
