A Solar Battery Structure for Consumer Electronic Devices

Article Preview

Abstract:

In recent years, new personal and home hold Consumer Electronic Devices (CEDs) areemerging rapidly, such as smart phones, panel computers, and electronic vehicles. All of these CEDsare surely convenient for our daily lives, but users usually have a common feeling on the CEDs: thebattery cannot support the CEDS for long time working, which require charging the batteries withinonly several hours. Considering this urgent issue, this paper presented a solar battery structure with abigger capacity for consumer electronic devices. This battery consisted of four parts: solar panel part,energy management part, energy storage part and DC/DC converter part. Especially, a super-capacitorwas performed as the energy storage part, which was based on transmission line model. A simplesimulation was done for evaluating the performances of the proposed structure. The simulation resultsindicated that, the proposed battery structure had a bigger capacity and higher output power, whichwas more suitable for CEDs.
