【 摘 要 】

Energy harvesting is important in the case of recharging or repay of battery. Energy harvesting means that energy is derivered from external sources like solar energy, thermal energy, kinetic energy and wind energy. Two or more sensors are attached to a body forms Body Sensor Networks (BSNs). BSN s are mainly focused in healthcare domain. it allows patients, physiciants, caregivers, scientists, etc. It useful for continuous monitoring of patients (Diagnosis patients, treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients and other health conditions). Doctors made interaction between the data collected body sensors and personal digital assistant (PDA). Disadvantage of existing system is batteries cannot be easly replaced, met must be near a transmitter, expensive, etc. Energy Harvesting and Data Collection (EHDC) focuses two types of energy harvesting techniques such that solar and thermal energy harvesting and two types of data collections are used:indoor and outdoor data collection. Harvested energy can be predicted by using Kalman Filter. EHDC provide mobile healthcare services and does not need recharging.
