Abstract

In this paper, an extended-range hybrid solar-cell and battery powered bicycle through a wireless sensor network (WSN) for far-end network monitoring solar energy to charge two lead-acid batteries and the effectiveness analysis is proposed. In order to achieve this goal, the key component of ZigBee used for a far-end wireless network supervisory system is setup. By adding a small-powered solar panel to charge two batteries when idle or low power periods, an extended-range hybrid powered bicycle allows its driving distance to be increased further. The alternative with this solution, though, are weight and cost. Experimental results prove that our prototype, the solar energy powered bicycle, can manage the solar energy for charging two lead-acid batteries pack to extend its range. As a result, the user by the wireless network in parking period knows the data on the amount of immediate solar radiation, the degree of illumination, the ambient temperature, and electrical energy storage capacity information by the internet interface.
