In order to reduce the natural frequency of the piezoelectric vibration energy harvester, improve performance of the piezoelectric vibration energy harvester, and meet the requirements of energy acquisition in the low-frequency vibration environment, a variable-section circular piezoelectric vibration energy harvester is presented. The dynamic model and electromechanical coupling model of variable-section circular piezoelectric vibration energy harvester are established. The main factors affecting the output performance of piezoelectric vibration energy harvester are analyzed. The structure parameters of piezoelectric vibration energy harvester are optimized by orthogonal experiment. An experimental platform is built to test output voltage and output power of piezoelectric vibration energy harvester. The experimental results show that when the number of energy harvester is 4 and the external load is 180KΩ, the parallel output power can reach 0.213mW, which can meet the requirements of micro-power device power supply.
