abstract
In this thesis we focus on building a solar-powered web server. We present existing websites which are fully or partially solar powered, introduce some background about battery state of charge estimation and how to determine the right solar panel and battery size. Reusing components from older projects, we host a static website on an exemplary setup, which is solely solar powered.
note
[Quote: "The web server plays a key role in this project. The BeagleBone AI is a single-board com- puter (SBC) similar to the Raspberry Pi, but with additional machine learning capabilities (see Figure 3.3). It is based on the Texas Instruments AM5729, which is an Arm processor. For this project we use a version of Debian Buster as operating system, which is specifically adapted to run on this processor. ... We use NGINX as a web server to host a static website on the BeagleBone AI." Energy to serve files: 1kB 9.8mJ, 10kB 10.4mJ, 100kB 13.2mJ, 1MB 40.3mJ, 10MB 298.8mJ, 100MB 2730mJ.
