Abstract :
In the near future, self-powered wearable sensor nodes are becoming as an emerging trend in healthcare applications. However, several design challenges exist before their wide usage, such as the limited and unstable power output as well as unpredictable power profiles. This paper shows an overview of candidate solutions and proposes that a cross-layer approach is needed.
