The research topic is developping a power converting interface for the novel FLEHAP wind energy harvester allowing the produced energy to be used for powering small wireless nodes. The harvester's electrical characteristics were studied and a strategy was developped to control and mainting a maximum power transfer. The electronic power...

In this work, a power management system for the fluttering wind energy harvester FLEHAP is presented and tested. The proposed system uses a low power microcontroller running a simple power management algorithm, and an optimised self-powered circuit consisting of a buck-boost converter and an auxiliary circuit, which is capable of providing...
