An Improved Rectifier Circuit for Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting from Human Motion

Harvesting energy from human motion for powering small scale electronic devices is attracting research interest in recent years. A piezoelectric device (PD) is capable of harvesting energy from mechanical motions, in the form of alternating current (AC) voltage. The AC voltage generated is of low fr...
