Abstract

The design of vibration energy harvesting system presents variety of solutions. The main challenges in the design are the optimization of energy outcome relative to the working frequency and amplitude of vibration sources. In this paper we present main possible strategies to harvest energy from common existing vibration sources. We propose to focus on the two main principles which are the electrodynamic and magnetoelectric energy harvester. A linear and nonlinear developed solutions for electrodynamic principles and existing magnetoelectric energy harvester are presented.
