VI. CONCLUSIONS
This paper presents the energy consumption analysis of
ZigBee-based energy harvesting wireless sensor networks.
Practical measurements are employed to investigate three main
metrics influencing the network design: energy consumption in
power up mode, energy consumption of reporting data with
application acknowledgement requirements, and energy
consumption of routers. The measurement results show that
node density has little impact on the energy consumption of
routers and the most important challenges to energy harvesting
technology are on the first two metrics. Moreover, An energy
consumption model is proposed to evaluate the lifetime of a
sensor node. Based on the analysis, the potential energy-saving
solutions are discussed for ZigBee-based energy harvesting
wireless sensor networks.
