摘要
Piezoelectric energy harvesting technologies have received a great attention during the last decade to design self-powered microelectronic devices such as wireless sensor nodes. Piezoelectric energy harvester is a resonant system that produces maximum power output when its resonant frequency matches the ambient vibration frequency. The deviation from the resonance causes significant decrease in the power output. There are two possible solutions to compensate the effect of frequency deviation: widening the operating frequency bandwidth and tuning the resonant frequency. Tuning the resonant frequency is a more efficient technique for applications with single time varying dominant frequency. This paper presents a comprehensive review of frequency tuning methods for piezoelectric energy harvesting systems. Two categories generally investigated in the literature include manual and autonomous tuning methods. The recent developments of many tuning strategies are discussed and summarized.
