Abstract
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) deployment is growing as a result of recent advances in sensor technology. WSN has been used extensively in monitoring and surveillance applications, including environmental sensing, target tracking, and systemic health monitoring [11, 12]. Since typical sensors have operated by batteries, WSN deployment on a large scale is hampered by the limited battery power. A smart energy power distribution system has been introduced in this paper. The Peltier sensor generates power from the vehicle's engine heat and is transferred to the WPT load. The cost of generated power is updated to the server via the internet and used for filling fuel.
