The concept of wireless sensor nodes and sensor networks has been widely investigated within the field of structural health monitoring (SHM). However, the ability to power sensors, onboard processing, and telemetry components is a significant challenge in many SHM applications. Several energy harvesting techniques, based on piezoelectric and thermoelectric materials, have been proposed and studied to solve such problems. This article summarizes recent advances and research issues in energy harvesting relevant to SHM applications. We also present a feasibility study for using radio frequency (RF) signals to wirelessly deliver energy to power sensing systems. The goal of this study is to provide a method for supplying power to a sensor node periodically so that the SHM system does not rely on an onboard power source.
