Recently, the various methods for RF energy harvesting and reutilizing has become the challenging matter around the world to minimize the wastage of RF energy in the form of electromagnetic waves within the atmosphere. An associate approach of collecting a particular range of frequencies & conversion into dc current- Rectenna is proposed here. Star shaped Dielectric Resonator Antenna is implemented as antenna for receiving RF energy at 2.44 GHz resonant frequency. It is observed that Star shaped DRA exhibits a radiated power of 0.8825 W with respect to 1W incident power and maximum gain of 5.9672 dBi. The RF power received by Antenna is given to a Rectifier circuit via proper impedance matching circuit. The rectified pulsating DC power is given to capacitor filter to suppress harmonics .

<span>This paper presents a high voltage conversion at high sensitivity RF energy harvesting system for IoT applications. The harvesting system comprises bulk-to-source (BTMOS) differential-drive based rectifier to produce a high efficiency RF energy harvesting system. Low-pass upward impedance matching network is applied at the rectifier input to increase the sensitivity and output voltage. Dual-oxide-thickness transistors are used in the rectifier circuit to maintain the power efficiency at each stage of the rectifier. The system is designed using 0.18µm Silterra RF in deep n-well process technology and achieves 4.07V output at -16dBm sensitivity without the need of complex auxiliary control circuit and DC-DC charge-pump circuit. The system is targeted for urban environment.</span>

Abstract This paper presents a radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting (RFEH) system with a multiband antenna configuration that can simultaneously harvest energy from the sub-6 GHz and 5G millimeter-wave (mm-Wave) frequency bands. The performance of the RFEH system is studied from −25 dBm to 5 dBm input power levels underlying the maximization of the overall efficiency and possible optimization strategies. The maximum achievable power conversion efficiency (PCE) is formulated as a mathematical programming problem and solved by optimizing the design factors including antenna geometry, operational frequencies, rectifier topologies, and rectifier parameters. An array of broadband high gain patch antennas with reconfigurable rectifiers, an impedance matching network, and a voltage-multiplier circuit are employed in the system to maximize the PCE. The voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) and reflection coefficient (S11) of the antenna are estimated and optimized by numerical method. Simulations are conducted to evaluate the performances of the rectenna and the voltage-multiplier circuit. Results for radiation pattern, wave absorption, input impedance, voltage, and power across the load resistance as a function of frequency are obtained for the optimized configuration. The overall efficiency of the optimized RFEH system is measured at various power inputs and load resistances.
