“…Conventional methods such as those listed in [1], while effective in some scenarios, do not sufficiently address the above criteria in the context of an energy harvesting system. Below we list several standard approaches to monitoring energy flow and enumerate the flaw with each in the context of ultra low power or energy harvesting systems: 1) Series sense resistor: A serial resistor in the power path of interest, across which voltage is monitored.…”

Knowledge of energy flow in a microwatt-class energy harvesting system is essential to reliable deployment and scheduling of sensing, computation, communication, and actuation tasks. However, existing techniques for monitoring energy flow fail to meet the basic requirements for in-situ realtime monitoring systems by failing to be efficient and failing to perform accurately across a wide dynamic range. The proposed system, µMonitor, makes use of a highly power-optimized "Coulomb counting" implementation to achieve less than 1.7 microampere current draw, 94% efficiency in-situ, and high energy flow measurement accuracy across four orders of magnitude.
