Problems solved by technology

[0005] In addition, many mature solar-powered devices that are currently formed are not specifically designed for wireless sensor network nodes.
Moreover, the traditional solar power supply device has the following three disadvantages for the application of low-power wireless sensor network nodes: (1) many analog signal components such as capacitors, operational amplifiers and resistors are used, which increases the energy consumption and operation of the circuit itself. (2) The battery is used for charging, which has defects such as limited charging life, poor high and low temperature performance, and serious environmental pollution; (3) The solar battery is connected to the charging control circuit, and stops operating after the battery is fully charged. Battery power supply, because the solar battery is in a state of non-operation at this time, so the solar energy is not used efficiently, and the energy management and control steps are lacking, which makes the power supply efficiency low

Abstract

The invention relates to a device and a method for intelligently supplying power to a node based on a wireless sensor network, which belongs to the technical field of low-energy consumption power supply of the node of the wireless sensor network, and aims to solve the problem that the energy supplies and management of the node are inconvenient because the distribution of the node in the field wireless sensor network is wide and the layout environment thereof is complicated. In the technical scheme of the invention, a MCU microprocessor selects the power supply mode of supplying power directly by a solar battery or releasing energy by a super capacitor by collecting external voltages and through internal comparison and judgment so as to intelligently control charging and power supply circuits, and control the node to enter different working modes according to the energy state so as to improve the efficiency of energy utilization. The device and the method of the invention can solve the intrinsic power supply problem of the nodes of the wireless sensor network, and extend the lifecycle of the whole wireless sensor network.

Background technique [0002] Due to the large number of wireless sensor network nodes, wide distribution areas and long-term deployment in unattended environmental areas, the environment in which it is located is complex, and it is not practical to replenish energy by replacing batteries. Therefore, effective energy-saving strategies must be adopted. Extend the lifetime of the network. Harvesting energy from the environment is an effective way to make sensor nodes work for a long time. At present, energy storage devices are mostly used to obtain energy such as solar energy, vibration energy, wind energy or temperature differen...
