AB  - This paper aims to study a novel smart self-powered wireless lightweight (SPWL) bridge health monitoring sensor, which integrates key technologies such as large-scale, low-power wireless data transmission, environmental energy self-harvesting, and intelligent perception, and can operate stably for a long time in complex and changing environments. The self-powered system of the sensor can meet the needs of long-term bridge service performance monitoring, significantly improving the coverage and efficiency of monitoring. By optimizing the sensor system design, the maximum energy conversion of the energy harvesting unit is achieved. In order to verify the function and practicality of the new SPWL monitoring sensor, this study combined the actual bridge engineering, carried out a bridge monitoring case study, and developed an SPWL monitoring scheme based on the bridge structure principle. Compared with traditional monitoring methods, this technology significantly improves the sustainability and performance of infrastructure monitoring based on the new SPWL sensor, fully demonstrating the excellent monitoring capabilities of this type of sensor, and providing strong support for the development of intelligent transportation and intelligent infrastructure.
