Editorial: Wireless sensor networks based on environmental energy harvesting

With the development of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), more complicated and challenging applications now can be targeted by small and smart systems. Although most of these applications require little power, the gradual degradation of the batteries further decreases the useable lifetime of WSNs. As...
