Resumen
This paper aims to design and implement a robust wireless charging system that utilizes affordable materials and the principle of piezoelectricity to generate clean energy to allow the user to store the energy for later use. A wireless charging system that utilizes the piezoelectricity generated as a power source and integrated with Qi-standard wireless transmission would substantially affect the environment and the users. The approach consists of a full-wave-rectified piezoelectric generation, battery storage, Qi-standard wireless transmission, and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) as the controller and application monitor. Three main functions are involved in the design of the proposed system: power generation, power storage, and power transmission. A client application is conceived to monitor the transmission and receipt of data. The piezoelectric elements generate the AC electricity from the mechanical movements, which converts the electricity to DC using the full-wave bridge rectifiers. The sensor transmits the data to the application via BLE protocols. The user receives continuous updates regarding the storage level, paired devices, and remaining time for a complete charge. A Qi-standard wireless transmitter transfers the stored electricity to charge the respective devices. The output generates pulses to 60 voltage on each compression of a transducer. The design is based on multiple parallel configurations to solve the issue of charging up to the triggering value VH = 5.2 V when tested with a single piezoelectric transducer. AA-type battery cells are charged in parallel in a series configuration. The system is tested for a number of scenarios. In addition, we simulate the design for 11.11 h for approximately 70,000 joules of input. The system can charge from 5% to 100% and draw from 98%. Using four piezos in the designed module results in an average output voltage of 1.16 V. Increasing the number of piezos results in 17.2 W of power. The system is able to wirelessly transmit and store power with a stable power status after less than 0.01 s.
