Abstract: This paper presents the design of a universal energy module for nodes in wireless sensor networks. It supports a wide range of energy harvesters and energy storage systems. The focus is on the efficient conversion and storage of energy and to provide a smart platform for higher level energy management functions. The module provides maximum power point tracking and supports hybrid harvesters.

Abstract: This paper presents the design of a universal energy module for wireless sensor nodes, which supports a wide range of energy harvesters and energy storages. The focus is on the efficient conversion and storage of energy and to provide hardware support for higher level management functions. The module facilitates maximum power point tracking to improve the harvester efficiency. By supporting hybrid harvesters, the module can make better use of the time-dependent availability of environmental energy sources.

Abstract: The paper presents an approach of applying DCF77 time radio signals to provide a clock with global time in sensor networks based on TinyOS. Some nodes containing DCF77 receiver hardware reliably decode time signals even if these are distorted to some extent. The clock with global time is provided by compensating clock drift. Time is distributed in the network with a protocol generating timestamps on the MAC layer.
