Abstract:
Energy harvesting systems have been recently considered as an alternative to battery- operated systems, especially when the usage of battery-based systems is limited or the process of charging the batteries becomes infeasible. As one of the most important marketing factors for IoT devices, these systems are expected to reach around 100 billion objects in the near future.On the other hand, the emergence of nonvolatile memories due to useful features such as high density and low leakage energy has received much attention that allows the system designer to store the CPU state while the system’s input power is lost. Moreover, system parameters such as capacitance size, frequency, and power sequence of the input to the system have a significant influence on the efficiency of energy harvesting systems, and it is sometimes impossible to check all these situations on real- time processors.In this study, a simulator is presented, which is capable of running different applications on these systems with various energy sequences, capacitance sizes and frequencies
