On the Efficiency Enhancement of an Actively Tunable MEMS Energy Harvesting Device

In this paper, we propose an active control method to adjust the resonance frequency of a capacitive energy harvester. To this end, the resonance frequency of the harvester is tuned using an electrostatic force, which is actively controlled by a voltage source. The spring softening effect of the ele...
