| dc.description.abstract | In this article, we present a design of
an improved DC-DC converter for low power
Wireless Sensor Node using IoT. New research
shows that the main drawback of future
wireless sensor networks is energy storage,
collection, and processing. WSNs are installed
in remote locations and are powered by
photovoltaic panels and batteries. In both
cases, the power supply is variable. A DC-DC
converter is a device that adjusts the source
output voltage of a load. In this research, we
have designed a DC-DC converter for ESP8266
based sensor nodes powered by battery. We
have simulated the DC-DC converter using
MATLAB with adding several protection and
controlling features. This includes a PID
controller for transient stability. This model
output gives high efficiency DC power supply
with very low ripple rate. Practically most of
the failures in electronic devices occur due to
power supply failures. This is the best solution
for sensor nodes with long lasting life span. | en_US |
