Abstract

Recently, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are the basic building blocks in smart cities, smart parking, and smart building applications. One of the major problems in the WSN node is the limited amount of energy that suffers the entire operation because it can only work for a few days based on the duty cycle. This research presents an efficient solar energy harvesting based WSN nodes using solar photovoltaic energy to overcome the problem mentioned above. The optimized solar energy harvesting based WSN will increase the network lifetime. In this paper, we have presented an MPPT-EPO optimized solar energy harvesting to maximize the WSN lifetime. The energy-efficient technique of the Emperor Penguin Optimization algorithm (EPO) is used to optimize the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) for tracking the maximum power from the solar panel. The SEPIC converter boosts the electrical energy generated through solar to get sufficient voltage to charge the battery. From this system, various sensor nodes are supplied with energy.
