ABSTRACT
Telecommunication is the transmission of information over electromagnetic systems using technologies such as radio, wire, etc. Mobile phones are the most popular form of telecommunication. As a result, the usage of smartphones has drastically increased each year. And even during this current pandemic COVID-19, the usage of smartphones and internet has tremendously increased. Some significant applications include banking applications, education sectors (online classes), virtual meetings, e-commerce, travel, recreation etc. As the usage increases, there arises a frequent charge and discharge cycle. Enormous amount of energy is generated every day while carrying our daily activities by means of which, a significant amount of pressure is developed. Using this energy, an efficient model is proposed which uses piezoelectric and thermoelectric sensors to generate energy to suffice the daily needs of a common man. As aligning with the SDG goal number 7 - affordable and clean energy, the proposed idea is a step towards attaining a sustainable future. © 2020 IEEE.
