Abstract
For many wireless sensor networks applications,
indoor light energy is the only ambient energy source commonly
available. Many advantages and constraints co-exist in this
technology. However, relatively few indoor light powered
harvesters have been presented and much research remains to be
carried out on a variety of related design considerations and
trade-offs. This work presents a solution using the Tyndall mote
and an indoor light powered wireless sensor node. It analyses
design considerations on several issues such as indoor light
characteristics, solar panel component choice, maximum power
point tracking, energy storage elements and the trade-offs and
choices between them.
