“…One of these solar systems power wireless sensor nodes to extend their life, enabling them to wake up for less time, and increase the default transmission range [11]. The solar technique is used even in space, as satellites recollect the energy, save it in a battery and use it for transmissions [12]. There is an animal monitoring device that uses solar energy to know their behavior and follow their route using GPS (Global Positioning System).…”

In this work, we present autonomous active tags. The power sources of these active tags employ energy harvesting techniques, specifically, solar and mechanical techniques. The integration of these techniques, and the storage of the energy obtained with a supercapacitor, converts the active tag into an autonomous device. These tags work in a low power mode in which they dynamically adjust their radio communication capabilities. Such a configuration depends on the application. We tested the tags in a real environment with testing parameters to check the modules, meaning more wake-ups over a longer time. Under these conditions, the tags gather enough energy to autonomously maintain standby operation on a sunny day for ten hours. In conclusion, this autonomous active tag is a demonstration that the integration of energy harvesting techniques, supercapacitor storage and the management of low power modes for transceivers, microcontrollers, and memories creates a device without energy dependencies that only depends on the requirements, and can be used in many applications related to, for instance, smart homes, smart cities, smart cars, and connected forests.

Since it was first time proposed, the Space Solar Power Station (SSPS) has attracted great attention all over the world, which is a huge space system and provide energy for Earth. Although several schemes and abundant studies on SSPS have been proposed and conducted, it is still unrealized. The reason why SSPS is still an idea, not only because it is a giant and complex project, but also due to the requirement of various excellent space materials. Among the diverse required materials, we believe energy materials are the most important. Herein, we reviewed the space energy conversion materials for SSPS.
