Condition monitoring of urban rail transit by local energy harvesting

Abstract: The goal of this study is to develop a vibration-based electromagnetic energy harvesting prototype that provides power to rail-side monitoring equipment and sensors by collecting wheel-rail vibration energy when the train travels. This technology helps power rail-side equipment in off-grid and remote areas. This article introduces the principle, modeling, and experimental test of the system, including (1) an electromagnetic energy harvesting prototype with DC-DC boost converter and lithium battery charge manag… Show more

“…The condition-monitoring system based on energy harvesting was described in the abovementioned paper Gao et al [ 142 ]. A track-side, vibration-based, electromagnetic-energy-harvesting prototype was previously analyzed in Gao et al [ 144 ]; however, this system was designed for track analysis only. The system described in Gao et al [ 144 ] provided power to rail-side monitoring devices connected to sensors that ensured the collection of wheel–rail vibration energy during the train rides.…”

“…In previous years, railway infrastructure monitoring has been based more on wireless sensor networks [6][7][8][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. Thus, in [6][7][8], the authors present wireless devices and sensors, which can be used in railway infrastructure to assist in decision-making processes for improving maintenance activities through real-time monitoring.…”

“…The authors validate their solution and estimate that, with the proposed protocol, sensor nodes can operate about 10 years with two 3-V CR123 lithium batteries. Finally, Gao et al 4 present a vibration-based electromagnetic energy harvesting prototype that produces power to rail-side monitoring equipment and sensors by gathering wheel-rail vibration energy when the train travels. The proposed system involves several parts, such as an electromagnetic energy harvesting component, a lithium battery, and wireless nodes equipped with several sensors.…”
