Almansouri, Abdullah S., et al. "A Self-Powered Magneto-Acoustic Tracking Transducer." (2020). Acoustic telemetry is widely used for many tracking applications. Objects or subjects are tracked by attaching an acoustic transmitter onto them or having them wear them. The acoustic signal is then detected by different microphones to determine the location of the tagged target. The size and the weight of the tag determine the size of the target that can be tracked. In the case of small-sized tags, about 80% of the volume is consumed by the battery and electronics, while less than 20% by the actual
