ENERGY HARVESTING USING FREQUENCY RECTIFICATION

摘要

An energy harvesting apparatus (1) includes an energy frequency rectification structure (5) to receive mechanical energy and a first frequency, and a solid-state electromechanical transducer (3) coupled to the inverse frequency rectifier (5) to receive a force provided the inverse frequency rectifier (5) The force, when provided by the inverse frequency rectifier (5), causes the solid-state transducer (3) to be subjected to a second frequency that is higher than the first frequency to thereby generate electromechanical power.
