Parameter configuration technology of ship-borne energy network for ocean sensors

  Objectives  In terms of ocean sensors, their energy consumption points are scattered and the load fluctuation is drastic, with urgent need in energy conservation and consumption reduction. In order to optimize the energy supply of the ocean sensors, this paper studies the Ship-borne Energy Network(SEN) for ocean sensors.

  Methods  Firstly, the feasibility of SEN model is analyzed based on the development of vehicle energy network, dynamic wireless charging technology and electric ship technology. Next, based on the characteristics of the ocean sensor, the SEN model is established to propose two issues of energy transmission maximization and energy loss minimization and define problem model and constraint function. Finally, we select the basic experimental data set through the open source model MaritimeSim.

  Results  The experimental results show that SEN can transfer offshore renewable energy to ocean sensors node under some reasonable settings, complement the power network and enhance its power transmission capability.

  Conclusions  The study results can provide new design method for optimizing the energy supply of ocean sensors.
