Abstract
There is much interest in research in the topic of energy harvesting, especially multi-source or hybrid energy harvesting systems. The widespread development of low-power devices has created a demand for energy harvesting from ambient sources, as this not only enables easy and sustainable operation of such devices, but also increases the scope of deployment by manifolds. Hybrid harvesters further enhances this scenario as they offer even more flexibility. The primary application of such systems range from simple wireless sensor network (WSN) nodes and intelligent devices that are connected together, a concept known as the "Internet of Things" to wearable electronics.
