Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) with energy harvesting capabilities have drawn increasing attention in the last few years, as they enable long-term monitoring applications. However, the level of power harvested is usually limited to few mW. To improve the energy efficiency of WSNs, many power management techniques have been proposed to adjust...

Future Internet of Things is paving the way for the proliferation of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). To overcome the limited energy in batteries, WSN nodes are relying on everlasting environmental energy. Moreover, a Power Manager (PM) is also embedded in each WSN node to guarantees that the total consumed energy is equal to the harvested...
