论文摘要
在许多物联网应用程序（IoT）应用程序中，设备的自治是一个主要挑战，特别是当节点被远程部署或难以评估位置时。在本文中，我们提出了一种通过无人机（UAV）为这些设备提供能源的方法。因此，提出了两个主要挑战，即发现和充电节点。我们提出了一个模型，通过将无线电源传输（WPT）链接和电池容量考虑在内。选择最合适的电池技术可以减少电池容量和浪费。此外，现有物联网节点的升级是可行的，对设计和外形的影响有限。
Autonomy of devices is a major challenge in many Internet of Things (IoT) applications, in particular when the nodes are deployed remotely or difficult to assess places. In this paper we present an approach to provide energy to these devices by Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Therefore, the two major challenges, finding and charging the node are presented. We propose a model to give the energy constrained node an unlimited autonomy by taken the Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) link and battery capacity into account. Selecting the most suitable battery technology allows a reduction in battery capacity and waste. Moreover, an upgrade of existing IoT nodes is feasible with a limited impact on the design and form factor.
