Abstract
On this work, the performance of a Zinc-air battery with a novel structure powering a Bluetooth IoT node is described. Although Zinc-air batteries have the highest energy density of all actually available battery technologies, commercial zinc-air batteries are not used on wireless nodes because of their low capacity for enduring the short high-current pulses that occur when radio operation is active. Results show that the properties of the battery under test outperform standard commercial zinc-batteries and could be competitive with Li-Ion batteries performance, making it suitable for IoT applications.
