Based on a magnetic coupling, this paper presents a novel device for power generation by spurious electromagnetic emissions from compact fluorescent lamps. The proposed scavenger consists of a resonant loop and an RF-to-DC voltage converter. Results of experimental tests performed with a 30 W compact fluorescent lamp are reported and discussed. It is shown that 0.61 mW can be generated, thus demonstrating the suitability of the proposed device for powering low-consumption sensors.

Abstract
Based on a magnetic coupling, this paper presents a novel device for power generation by spurious electromagnetic emissions from compact fluorescent lamps. The proposed scavenger consists of a resonant loop and an RF-to-DC voltage converter. Results of experimental tests performed with a 30 W compact fluorescent lamp are reported and discussed. It is shown that 0.61 mW can be generated, thus demonstrating the suitability of the proposed device for powering low-consumption sensors.File in questo prodotto:
