Self‐Feedback Sensing Properties of Self‐Powered Multi‐Parameter Meteorological Sensor with Omnidirectional Array Structure

Abstract Frequent meteorological disasters pose more and more extensive threats to human life and property. However, the traditional meteorological sensors based on external power supply, for natural disaster monitoring and early warning, are severely limited in remote and unattended areas. Herein, a self‐powered multi‐parameter meteorological sensor (SMPM‐sensor) for various weather monitoring is proposed, which can monitor the weather through the feedback of electrical energy output while collecting natural energy. The designed 360° omnidirectional array structure facilitates efficient collection of all‐weather solar energy and rain energy in different directions and monitoring the light intensity without the influence of solar azimuth. Based on the four‐segmented disc‐shaped structure and the introduced Ecoflex transition layer, the frequency and amplitude of the wind electrical output can be effectively improved. Owing to structure and material optimizations, a good linearity of 0.9746 between the current and the solar illuminance is exhibited, a wide monitoring range of rainfall intensity changes from 0.1 to 11.9 mm min⁻¹, and the linearity between wind speed and voltage frequency can be as high as 0.9986. Therefore, based on excellent sensing performances, good stability, and real‐time characteristic, the fabricated SMPM sensor provides a potential technological strategy for the field of meteorological disaster monitoring.
