Electromagnetic vibration energy harvesting device optimization by synchronous energy extraction

Arroyo, E. | Badel, A.
This paper investigates a new application of nonlinear techniques for vibration energy harvesting. The Synchronous Electric Charge Extraction (SECE) energy harvesting technique for piezoelectric generators is extended and adapted to electromagnetic generators. This new circuit, which is the dual of the SECE circuit, is named SMFE for Synchronous Magnetic Flux Extraction. A theoretical model is developed, and the harvested power is simulated. Comparisons with a classical energy extraction approach show that between 2.5 more power and 10% less power can be harvested, depending on the generator characteristics. It also allows the maximum power to be harvested whatever the value of the load. Finally, the SMFE circuit was embedded and tested on a simple centimeter-scale electromagnetic harvester. Measurements confirm the theoretical operating principle of the circuit.
