Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wireless energy harvesting, and particularly relates to a method and device for electromagnetic wave energy harvesting. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of wireless communication technologies and the popularization of emerging technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), wireless sensor networks (WSNs), and 5G communications, radio signals ubiquitous in society (such as Wi-Fi, cellular communications, radio and television broadcasts, satellite signals, etc.) have gradually formed an electromagnetic environment in the form of a "background noise". Although the energy density of each individual signal in these environmental electromagnetic waves is extremely low, due to their wide distribution and continuous existence, by using advanced antennas and energy conversion technologies, collecting this weak electromagnetic wave energy, converting it into direct current electrical energy and storing it for driving low-power devices, sensors, or as an emergency power source has become an important direction in the research of energy conservation, environmental protection, and self-powered systems. In addition, with the continuous pursuit of green energy and sustainable development, wireless energy harvesting technology is also regarded as a potential solution for powering future IoT nodes and portable devices. By wirelessly collecting the electromagnetic wave energy in the environment, system self-power supply can be achieved, reducing the dependence on traditional battery replacement, thereby reducing maintenance costs and environmental pollution.
[0003] Wireless Energy Harvesting technology has received increasing attention in recent years. Its main goal is to capture the electromagnetic waves scattered in the environment through an antenna or coil, convert them into voltage and current, and then through rectification, matching, and electrical energy conversion, finally store them in a power storage device. This technology not only conforms to the concept of green energy and sustainable development but also helps to reduce the maintenance and replacement costs of IoT devices.
[0004] The currently widely used dynamic maximum power point tracking (DMPPT) technology based on impedance matching is a typical example. Its implementation process is mainly divided into three stages: First, the electromagnetic wave signal intensity parameters are collected in real time through a coupling coil, and a mathematical model of the source impedance is established; Second, the gradient descent algorithm is used to iteratively adjust the capacitance / inductance value of the matching network; Finally, the maximum power output point is locked through a hysteresis comparator. However, it is found in actual deployment that when the environmental electromagnetic field changes suddenly, the step size setting of the gradient algorithm and the system response delay will produce coupling interference, resulting in the tracking trajectory oscillating repeatedly on the power curve; especially in the scenario where Wi-Fi signals in the 2.4GHz band and microwaves in the 5.8GHz band are mixed, the multi-frequency coupling effect will further increase the system convergence time. Experimental data shows that its stabilization time can reach more than 120ms, making it difficult to meet the real-time power supply requirements in a dynamic environment. Existing technologies have proven the feasibility of using the electromagnetic waves distributed in the environment for energy harvesting in the theoretical and laboratory stages. However, since the energy density of electromagnetic waves in the environment is usually extremely low (microwatts or even lower), even with the use of efficient antennas and rectifier circuits, the ultimately converted electrical energy is very limited. This makes it often difficult for existing technologies to meet the continuous power supply requirements of devices in practical applications.
[0005] In summary, the existing energy harvesting methods have problems such as slow convergence speed, easy oscillation, and difficulty in accurately tracking the maximum power point in a dynamic environment, which directly affect the stability and overall efficiency of the electromagnetic wave energy harvesting system in energy harvesting when the intensity of electromagnetic waves in the environment fluctuates.

Each module works together to achieve the efficient collection, conversion, tracking, and storage of wireless electromagnetic energy.
[0018] 1. The energy collection module includes: Antenna / coil: used to receive radio waves or magnetic field signals in the environment, convert them into AC signals, and capture multi-band wireless electromagnetic waves in the environment. When designing, the requirements of broadband, high gain, and miniaturization are taken into account.

[0023] Based on the above electromagnetic wave energy harvesting device, the present invention also proposes an electromagnetic wave energy harvesting method, specifically including the following steps: S1. Acquisition of wireless electromagnetic wave signals and signal conversion: Electromagnetic wave power density model, the power density of wireless electromagnetic waves in the environment (unit: W / m 2 ) can be estimated by the following formula: ; where E : Electric field strength in the environment (unit: V / m); η0: Free space wave impedance, approximately 377 Ω.
[0024] S1.1. Environmental signal detection: Use a spectrum analyzer or software-defined radio (SDR) to detect the available radio frequency bands and power distribution in the environment.
[0025] S1.2. Antenna / coil selection and optimization: Select a suitable antenna for mainstream wireless frequency bands (such as Wi-Fi, cellular communication, broadcast signals, etc.), and use electromagnetic simulation software (such as HFSS, CST) to optimize the antenna structure.

[0029] S2. MPPT working model: In the MPPT part, the goal is to adjust the system working voltage V to maximize the output power P(V): ; where, V: DC voltage (unit: V); I(V): Output current at voltage V (unit: A).
[0030] A traditional method based on the Perturb and Observe (P&O) method and an improved method combined with Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) are proposed for MPPT. The Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm is used to optimize the energy harvesting system so that it can obtain the maximum power output under different environmental conditions. In the electromagnetic wave energy harvesting system, due to the possible change of the environmental electromagnetic field intensity, MPPT dynamically adjusts the load matching conditions to maximize the energy conversion efficiency. The Perturb and Observe (P&O) method is the most common implementation of MPPT. It slightly adjusts the operating point (such as the load resistance or the duty cycle of the boost converter), observes the power change trend, and adjusts the operating state of the harvesting system accordingly to stay near the maximum power point.
[0031] S2.1. Core idea of the Perturbation and Observation (P&O) algorithm: "Perturb" by slightly adjusting the load impedance R or the duty cycle D of the boost conversion circuit. Observe the change in power P: if P increases, continue to adjust in this direction; if P decreases, adjust in the opposite direction. Iterate repeatedly to stabilize the system near the maximum power point (MPP, Maximum Power Point). The specific steps are as follows: (1) Initialization: Set the initial operating voltage Measure the initial current Calculate the initial power: ; Set the voltage perturbation step size ΔV (unit: V) and define the power tolerance є (unit: W) as the convergence judgment criterion.
[0032] (2) Perturbation and measurement: By adjusting the load impedance R or the duty cycle D of the boost conversion circuit, obtain the new voltage V new and current I new . Update the operating voltage: ; Measure the new current I new and calculate the new power: ; (3) Judgment and adjustment: If P new > P old , it means that the perturbation in this direction is effective, continue to adjust in this direction and keep the sign of ΔV; if P new < P old , it means that the perturbation in the current direction is ineffective, then reverse the adjustment step size, that is, make ΔV = -ΔV.
[0033] (4) Update and repeat: Update the variables: ; Repeat steps (2) - (3) until ; When the perturbation amplitude is small enough and the power change is not obvious, it is considered that the maximum power point has been reached (that is, when the power change is less than the predetermined threshold, it is considered that the maximum power point has been reached).
[0034] The MPPT perturbation observation method makes the system always operate at the maximum power point by dynamically adjusting the load voltage or duty cycle, improving the energy harvesting efficiency. This method has simple calculations and is easy to implement, and is suitable for low-power energy management applications such as wireless energy harvesting, photovoltaic systems, and radio frequency energy harvesting.
[0035] S2.2. MPPT algorithm improved by Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO).
[0036] Since the Perturb and Observe (P&O) method is widely used in the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) problem, it has some problems, such as: Fixed step size: If the step size is too large, it may cause oscillations; if the step size is too small, the convergence speed is slow; Prone to local optimum: In a dynamic environment, P&O may not be able to follow the change of the maximum power point in time. To solve these problems, the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is used to optimize P&O, making it converge faster, reducing oscillations, and improving the energy conversion efficiency.
[0037] Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is an optimization algorithm based on swarm intelligence. It finds the optimal solution by simulating the behavior of bird flocks or fish schools. Basic idea: Each particle represents a possible solution (i.e., the load voltage V). The particle continuously adjusts its position based on its own experience (personal best value P best ) and global experience (global best value G best ) to reach the optimal solution. To improve the convergence speed and avoid local oscillations, the PSO algorithm can be used to perform a global search on MPPT; the specific steps include: (1) Parameter and variable definition: Number of particles: N (usually 10 - 20); Voltage boundary: Allowed voltage range [V min , V max ]; The state of each particle i ( i = 1, 2,..., N) includes: Position V i (representing the candidate operating voltage, unit: V) and velocity v i (unit: V / s); Inertia weight: (dimensionless); Learning factors: c1 and c2 (dimensionless); Random number: .
[0038] The output power formula of the acquisition system is: ; Objective: Find the optimal operating voltage V to obtain the maximum power P max .
[0039] (2) Initialization: Randomly initialize the initial position and velocity of the particles within the allowed voltage range: ; ; where rand() is a random number generated between [0, 1], v min represents the minimum boundary of the velocity, v maxRepresents the maximum boundary of speed.
[0040] Calculate the initial power for each particle: ; Set the individual best of each particle to the current state: ; Global best G best Is the voltage value corresponding to the maximum power among all particles.
[0041] (3) Iterative update: In each iteration (assuming the maximum number of iterations is T), perform the following steps: For each iteration t = 0, 1, 2,..., T max : Update the particle velocity, and the velocity update formula: ; Where, : Inertia weight; C 1, C 2: Learning factor; r 1, r 2: Random number.
[0042] Update the particle position, and the position update formula: ; At the same time, limit within the interval inside.
[0043] Power evaluation: Calculate the power of each particle at the new position: ; (4) Update individual and global best: During the particle update process, introduce the idea of the perturbation observation method: If P i (t+1) > P i (t) , it means that the current perturbation direction is beneficial, and keep the current velocity direction. If P i (t+1) < P i (t) , then perform local adjustment on the current particle, that is, reverse part of the perturbation: V i (t+1) = V i (t) - ΔV; And appropriately reduce the perturbation step size △V (e.g., △V = 0.9×△V) to improve the accuracy.
[0044] Update the individual and global best: If P i (t+1) > P best , then update the individual best: V best , i = V i (t+1) , P best = P i (t +1) . Check all particles. If the new individual best of a particle is greater than the current global best, then update the global best G best .
[0045] If then update: ; If a certain P best,i is greater than the current global optimum, then update the global optimum: ; where: V i : The voltage position of the i -th particle (unit: V); v i : The velocity of the i -th particle (unit: V / s); I (V): The current measured at voltage V (unit: A); P i : The power corresponding to the i -th particle (unit: W).
[0046] (5) When the maximum iteration number Tmax is reached or the power change amplitude of all particles is less than the set threshold, it is considered convergent, and the global optimal solution is output.
[0047] Advantages of PSO optimizing P&O: 1. Faster convergence: Through global search, PSO can find the maximum power point faster, avoiding the inefficiency of the gradual search of P&O.
[0048] 2. Reduced oscillation: When approaching the maximum power point, PSO gradually reduces the step size through the convergence mechanism, reducing power fluctuations.
[0049] 3. Adapt to dynamic changes: When the environment changes (such as the change in the intensity of electromagnetic wave signals), PSO can adjust adaptively and quickly find the new maximum power point.
[0050] The present invention realizes the accurate modeling and optimization of the energy conversion process by establishing a full-process model from environmental electromagnetic waves to the final DC output and combining MPPT algorithms (traditional P&O and improved PSO methods). It ensures that the system can be efficiently designed and implemented both theoretically and in practice, thereby overcoming the problems of low energy density, poor matching, low conversion efficiency, and slow MPPT convergence in the prior art. Based on the scheme of collecting and storing electromagnetic wave energy in the air, by adopting an efficient antenna design, optimizing the rectification and matching circuits, and introducing an adaptive MPPT control (such as the P&O algorithm optimized by combining PSO), it can realize the intelligent collection and efficient conversion of wireless energy, and further provide a self-powered solution for low-power devices. The beneficial effects of this scheme are reflected in reducing the maintenance cost, enhancing the self-powered ability of the system, and meeting the requirements of environmental protection.
[0051] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
