Summary:Roadside data collecting and communication applications might all benefit from power produced by energy harvesting from highways. According to the energy source they tap, roadside energy harvesters may be roughly divided into three categories: solar radiation, pavement heat, and mechanical energy from moving automobiles. In addition to environmental issues like the heat island impact on cities, asphalt pavements exposed to sun radiation may reach high temperatures that result in structural damage from hardening or rutting resulting from heat cycles. Asphalt solar collectors (ASCs) are one of the types of active systems that are doubly effective since they alleviate the difficulties that were described before and. Furthermore, ASCs can capture energy that can be utilized in a variety of different applications. To provide a complete picture of recent scientific developments, this review covers numerical, experimental, and numerical and experimental research on ASCs. Specifically, the setup, design parameters, advancement, challenges, and mathematical modeling of ASCs are systematically discussed. Accordingly, a number of suggestions for further research projects have been made in light of the associated results.
