Abstract:
Microwave wireless power transmission (MWPT) applications have attracted worldwide interest and attention in recent years. Rectennas are a crucial component of a MWPT system. The rectenna’s power capacity and output DC power have great significance with regard to the MWPT system’s performance. In this article, a compact 4 × 4 S-band rectangular patch rectenna array for MWPT is proposed and experimentally verified. Firstly, an S-band rectifier with better consistency and lower cost than a traditional output design using parallel capacitors as a filter is achieved. Then, a rectenna array based on the proposed rectifier and a novel design idea is proposed. The rectenna can achieve an output DC power of 117.6 mW/cm3 and an efficiency of 47.6%. Finally, a MWPT verification experiment is conducted. A 12-inch LCD screen powered by the rectenna with a rated power of 12 W successfully works without any other power supply. This article provides a new design of a rectenna for MWPT, and the proposed rectenna array demonstrates its good engineering significance and application prospects.

Abstract:
The use of radio frequency (RF) energy for wireless power transfer (WPT) has gained significant attention in recent years due to its potential for powering electronic devices without the need for wires or batteries. A key component of RF-based WPT systems is the rectenna, which converts RF energy into usable DC power. This article provides an overview of recent developments, opportunities, and challenges in the design of 2.4 GHz rectennas for RF-based WPT applications. We have searched major online libraries extensively for studies regarding the 2.4 GHz rectenna. As a result, 35 high-quality studies published between 2010 and 2023 were gathered. In the discussion section, we begin by presenting the basic principles of rectenna design and the key parameters that affect its performance, such as the antenna characteristics, rectifier capabilities, and nonlinearity properties of the rectifier. We then highlighted recent advancements in rectenna design, including novel approaches for improving efficiency and power transfer capability, such as the involvement of hybrid solar cell-rectenna structures, transistor-based rectifiers, and bridge rectifiers. Finally, the article concludes by identifying future opportunities, research directions, and open challenges in the design and optimization of rectennas for RF-based WPT, including the development of compact, low-cost, and high-performance rectennas for a wide range of applications. Overall, this article provides a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art of 2.4 GHz rectenna design for RF-based WPT and highlights the exciting opportunities and challenges for this rapidly growing field.

Abstract:
Progress in the development of rectenna systems for collecting/harvesting and converting the power of electromagnetic (ЕМ) fields created by radio-electronic means of various classes and purposes into direct current (DC) are considered. The article consists of two parts, each of which highlights important aspects of this topic. The main parameters of rectennas and the mechanisms of power loss in them are considered in the first part of the article. This allows us to understand the physical and technical limitations that have to be faced in the development of effective ЕМ power harvesting systems. The second part of the article considers typical schemes of rectennas for use in various applications. Features of the technical implementation of single-band rectennas, options for minimizing their dimensions and the construction of electrically small rectennas based on metasurfaces are given. Schemes of constructions of rectenna arrays and their advantages and disadvantages are also presented. Special attention in the article is paid to multi-band and wide-band rectennas. It is noted that such rectennas can store more energy and produce higher output DC power compared to narrowband rectennas. The design features of low-power rectifiers for rectennas of EM power harvesting systems from the surrounding space are considered. It was determined that the energy characteristics of rectannas are characterized by numerous factors and there are three approaches to their improvement. The first approach is to improve the parameters of individual rectifier elements, the second is to optimize the parameters of individual rectenna elements and the third is to optimize the entire rectenna as a whole.

Abstract:
A rectenna is a device that combines a rectifier with an antenna. The significance of rectennas lies in their potential for harvesting wireless energy. They can capture and convert ambient RF/microwave signals from sources like Wi-Fi routers, cell phone towers, and other communication systems into electricity. In this paper, different rectifier configurations have been implemented and analyzed for rectenna applications. The rectifier circuits include half-wave and full-wave. The performance metric of the rectenna for all configurations has been created and discussed. The matching and filtering elements are also taken into account while analyzing the performance metric. For some designs, the distributed element structure is developed which may further.

Abstract:
This paper presents a compact, dual-polarized rectenna array operating at 2.45 GHz and demonstrates its use in a microwave wireless power transmission (MWPT) system. The MWPT system comprises a compact voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), a power amplifier (PA), and the dual-polarized rectenna array. The VCO and PA together form a transmitter that delivers an output power of 1 W at 2.45 GHz. The transmitter’s DC power port features a universal type-C interface, which facilitates its use in daily life. We designed a meander-line dipole rectenna that eliminates the matching network between the antenna and diode. The meander-line structure improves the rectenna’s impedance and reduces its size. The measured maximum efficiency of the rectenna is 62.5% at −2 dBm. DC power combining is applied to the rectenna array to achieve dual polarization and voltage boosting simultaneously. The proposed rectenna array is integrated into a commercial digital thermometer. The digital thermometer was powered by the proposed MWPT system, demonstrating its bright prospects for MWPT applications.

Abstract:
This paper describes a compact and efficient rectenna based on a dual-diode microstrip rectifier at 2.45 GHz. This circuit has been designed and optimized using a global analysis technique which associates electromagnetic and circuit approaches. Due to the differential topology of the rectifier, neither input low-pass filter nor via-hole connections are needed. This makes the structure more compact reducing losses. Measurements of a single rectenna element show 83% efficiency over an optimal load of 1050 Ω at a power density of 0.31 mW/cm2. To increase the received RF power and then increase dc power over the load, identical rectennas have been interconnected to form arrays. Two and four elements rectenna arrays, connected either in parallel or in series, have been developed. It was shown that by properly choosing the interconnection topology and the optimal output load, higher dc voltage or dc power have been obtained. The four-element series-connected array can provide experimentally up to 3.85 times output dc voltage compared to the single rectenna. The parallel-connected rectenna arrays generate approximately 2.15 and 3.75 times output dc power for two and four elements, respectively.

Abstract:
This work presents the results of the characterization of two 1 × 5 mm2 miniaturized rectennas developed for medical applications. They have been designed for relatively high voltage and high-power applications, given the size of the rectennas. Both rectennas were tested in open-air conditions and surrounded by pork fat and muscle tissues, whose properties are similar to those of the human body. The resonant frequencies of the rectennas were found, and the incident electric field on the rectennas tests was increased. The first chip showed a maximum output voltage of 5.29 V and a maximum output power of 0.056 mW, at 1.446 GHz, under an incident field on the rectenna of 340 V/m, and the second chip, 4.62 V and 4.27 mW, at 1.175 GHz, under 535 V/m. The second rectenna can provide an output power greater than 5 mW. The rectennas presented in this article are beyond the state of the art, as they can deliver about three times more power and voltage than those of similar dimensions reported in the literature. Based on the test results, the efficiency of the rectennas was analyzed at different locations of the human body, considering different thicknesses of tissues with high and low water content. Finally, potential applications are described in which the rectennas could power implantable medical devices or microsurgery tools, for example, pulmonary artery pressure monitors.

Abstract:
In the last few years, several antenna designs of rectenna that meet various objectives have been proposed for use in RF energy harvesting. Among various antennas, microstrip patch antennas are widely used because of their low profile, light weight, and planar structure. Conventional patch antennas are rectangular or circular in shape, but variations in their basic design are made for different purposes. This paper begins with an explanation and discussion of different designs, put forward with an aim of miniaturization, harmonic rejection, and reconfigurability. Finally, microstrip patch structured rectennas are evaluated and compared with an emphasis on the various methods adopted to obtain a compact rectenna, harmonic rejection functionality, and frequency and polarization selectivity.

Abstract:
This paper presents the design of a compact 2.45 GHz microstrip rectenna for wireless sensors’ power supply. In energy harvesting system, the ambient RF energy can be collected by the rectenna and converted to direct current, therefore, it can be applied to the power supply of low-power wireless sensor. Voltage doubling rectifier circuit and T-type microstrip impedance matching network are applied to this rectenna to increase the output voltage and the rectification efficiency. The antenna is fabricatied ​​by using double PCB board (FR4), and it is optimized by ADS to achieve the best performance. The measurement results show that the rectifier can reach the highest conversion efficiency of 78% when the load resistance is 320 Ω and the input power is 18 dBm. It also greatly improves rectenna’s conversion efficiency at lower input power when the input power is-20 dBm, which has great practical value for supplying low power consumption sensors.

Abstract:
This thesis describes the design of a rectenna that is capable of operating in 5G. 5G’s availability will create the opportunity to harvest energy everywhere in the network’s coverage. This thesis investigates a Rectenna device with a new proposed topology in order to eliminate coupling between input and output lines and increase the rectification efficiency. Moreover, it is designed to charge a rechargeable battery of 3V, 1mA, with a 4.8mm diameter. The current design describes using one antenna for energy harvesting; this could be expanded to use an antenna array, which would increase the input power. This would lead to higher output currents, leading to the ability to efficiently charge a wide variety of batteries. Because of its small size, the rectenna could be used for the remote charging of an implantable sensor battery or for other applications where miniaturization is a design consideration.

Abstract:
Miniaturisation has been the holy grail of mobile technology. The ability to move around with our gadgets, especially the ones for communication and entertainment, has been what semiconductor scientists have battled over the past decades. Miniaturisation brings about reduced consumption in power and ease of mobility. However, the main impediment to untethered mobility of our gadgets has been the lack of unlimited power supply. The battery had filled this gap for some time, but due to the increased functionalities of these mobile gadgets, increasing the battery capacity would increase the weight of the device considerably that it would eventually become too heavy to carry around. Moreover, the fact that these batteries need to be recharged means we are still not completely free of power cords. The advent of low powered micro-controllers and sensors has created a huge industry for more powerful devices that consume a lot less power. These devices have encouraged hardware designers to reduce the power consumption of the gadgets. This has encouraged the idea of wireless power transmission on another level. With lots of radio frequency energy all around us, from our cordless phones to the numerous mobile cell sites there has not been a better time to delve more into research on WPT. This study looks at the feasibilities of WPT in small device applications where very low power is consumed to carry out some important functionality. The work done here compared two rectifying circuits’ efficiencies and ways to improve on the overall efficiencies. The results obtained show that the full wave rectifier would be the better option when designing a WPT system as more power can be drawn from the rectenna. The load also had a great role as this determined the amount of power drawn from the circuitry.

Abstract:
Les progrès réalisés durant ces dernières années dans le domaine de la microélectronique et notamment vis-à-vis de l'augmentation exponentielle de la densité d'intégration des composants et des systèmes a participé activement à l'apparition et au développement de systèmes portables communicants de plus en plus performants et polyvalents. La R&D dans les technologies de stockage d'énergie n'a pas suivi cette tendance d'évolution très rapide ; ce qui constitue un handicap majeur dans les évolutions futures des systèmes portables. La transmission d'énergie sans fils sur des distances considérables (plusieurs dizaines de mètres) grâce aux microondes constitue une solution très prometteuse pour pallier aux problèmes d'autonomie dans le cas des systèmes sans fils communicants. De plus, du fait de l'omniprésence des ondes électromagnétiques dans notre environnement avec des niveaux plus ou moins importants, la récupération et l'exploitation de cette énergie libre est également possible. La rectenna (Rectifying Antenna) est le dispositif permettant de capter et de convertir une onde électromagnétique en une tension continue. Plusieurs travaux de thèse axés sur l'étude et l'optimisation de la rectenna ont été réalisés au sein du laboratoire. Ces travaux avaient montré que pour des faibles niveaux de champs les tensions délivrées par la rectenna sont généralement très faibles et inexploitables. Aussi, comme la majorité des micro-sources d'énergie et à cause de son impédance interne, les performances de la rectenna dépendent fortement de sa charge de sortie. Ainsi, le développement d'un système d'interfaçage de la rectenna est nécessaire afin de pallier ces manquements inhérents du convertisseur RF/DC. Ce genre de système d'interfaçage est généralement absent dans la littérature à cause des faibles niveaux de puissance exploités. Par conséquent, la rectenna est très souvent utilisée tel quelle ; ce qui limite fortement le champ applicatif. Dans ce projet de recherche, un système de gestion énergétique de la rectenna complètement autonome a été conçu, développé et optimisé afin de garantir les performances optimales de la rectenna quelques soient les fluctuations de la puissance d'entrée et celles de la charge de sortie. Le circuit d'interfaçage permet également de fournir à la charge des niveaux de tension utilisables. Le système réalisé est basé tout d'abord sur l'utilisation d'un convertisseur DC/DC résonant pouvant fonctionner d'une manière complètement autonome à partir de niveaux très bas de la tension et de la puissance de la source. Ce convertisseur permet donc de garantir l'autonomie du système en éliminant la nécessité d'une source d'énergie auxiliaire. A cause de ses faibles performances énergétiques, ce convertisseur ne sera utilisé que durant la phase de démarrage. L'efficacité du système en termes de rendement énergétique et d'adaptation d'impédance est garantie grâce à l'utilisation d'un convertisseur Flyback fonctionnant dans son régime de conduction discontinu. Ainsi, une adaptation d'impédance très efficace est réalisée entre la rectenna et la charge de sortie. Ce convertisseur principal fonctionnera durant le régime permanent. Les deux convertisseurs ont été optimisés pour des niveaux de tension et de puissance aussi bas que quelques centaines de mV et quelques μW respectivement. Des mesures expérimentales réalisées sur plusieurs prototypes ont démontré le bon fonctionnement et les excellentes performances prédites par la procédure de conception ; ce qui nous permet de valider notre approche. De plus, les performances obtenues se distinguent parfaitement vis-à-vis de l'état de l'art. Enfin, en fonction de l'application désirée, plusieurs synoptiques d'association des deux structures sont proposés. Ceci inclut également la gestion énergétique de la charge de sortie.

Abstract:
The work in this thesis investigates the design and fabrication of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) diodes using an ultrathin organic insulator. The organic insulating layer was found to be compact, highly conformal, and uniform, effectively overcoming the main design challenge in MIM diodes. The fabricated diodes have strong nonlinear current-voltage characteristics with a zero-bias curvature coefficient and a voltage responsivity among the best values reported in the available literature. The fabrication process is simple and carried out at low temperature, which is cost effective, and can potentially be ported to large-area roll-to-roll manufacturing. An encapsulation method to prevent MIM junctions’ degradation has also been developed. Following the successful production of these MIM devices on a rigid substrate, with the fabrication only requiring low-temperature processing, the diodes were successfully fabricated on a flexible substrate with results similar to those fabricated on a rigid substrate. The flexible substrate diodes show no significant degradation in performance when stressed in a one-off bending experiment, although extreme mechanical stress testing does produce some loss in quality. Also, an elegant method for matching the impedance of an antenna to that of a MIM diode was successfully developed, for optimal external conversion efficiency where the diodes are used in a rectenna device. The responsivity of the impedance-matched rectenna is approaching an order of magnitude higher than that of a control device without a matching network. The fabrication, electrical characterisation and physical analysis of both the MIM diodes and rectennas are discussed in detail in this thesis.

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited.
This thesis continues an NPS project related to wireless power transmission for micro air vehicles (MAVs). The conversion of radio-frequency (rf) power into usable direct-current (dc) power is performed by a rectifying antenna, or rectenna. The emphasis of this thesis is the simulation and experimental study of various rectenna designs to determine which best provides high efficiency, stable output power, and lightweight design. The analysis of rectenna design focuses on four subsystems: (1) the receiving antenna, (2) the matching sections, (3) the rectification, and (4) the post-rectification filter. Based on the findings of this research, the ultimate rectenna design implements a half-wave dipole antenna that performs full-wave rectification with two diodes. The post-rectification filter is implemented by a capacitor to obtain stable dc power. The final design achieved an efficiency of nearly 66% for input power in the range of 200 mW.

Abstract:
Ruthenium oxide (RuO2) nanorods are an emergent technology in nanostructure devices. As the physical size of electronics approaches a critical lower limit, alternative solutions to further device miniaturization are currently under investigation. Thin-film nanorod growth is an interesting technology, being investigated for use in wireless communications, sensor systems, and alternative energy applications. In this investigation, self-assembled RuO2 nanorods are grown on a variety of substrates via a high density plasma, reactive sputtering process. Nanorods have been found to grow on substrates that form native oxide layers when exposed to air, namely silicon, aluminum, and titanium. Samples were analyzed with Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) techniques. Conductive Atomic Force Microscopy (C-AFM) measurements were performed on single nanorods to characterize structure and electrical conductivity. The C-AFM probe tip is placed on a single nanorod and I-V characteristics are measured, potentially exhibiting rectifying capabilities. An analysis of these results using fundamental semiconductor physics principles is presented. Experimental data for silicon substrates was most closely approximated by the Simmons model for direct electron tunneling, whereas that of aluminum substrates was well approximated by Fowler-Nordheim tunneling. The native oxide of titanium is regarded as a semiconductor rather than an insulator and its ability to function as a rectifier is not strong. An electronic model for these nanorods is described herein.

Abstract:
Currently, there is an increasing need for the introduction of alternative energy sources in various sectors of the Russian economy. The development of alternative energy sources based on rectenn is proposed for the power supply of equipment. Rectenna (from the English Rectifying antenna — rectifying antenna) is a device that is a nonlinear antenna designed to convert the field energy of an electromagnetic wave (EMW) incident on it in the optical range (UV, V, IR: λ=0.1÷40.0 µm) into DC energy. The tactical and technical characteristics (TTС) of promising rectenn-based devices are presented.

Abstract:
Recently, rectennas have drawn attention as an attractive option to harvest radiative thermal energy from the sun and terrestrial thermal sources. In order to achieve the potential high energy conversion efficiencies by this technology, matching conditions between the incident electromagnetic wavelength and the rectenna characteristic length must be satisfied. Therefore, a selective emitter is a key element in high efficiency rectennas. Photonic structures were designed for selective emission using the transfer matrix method and genetic algorithm optimization. Two types of emitters were developed using aluminum as the supporting substrate. This paper presents narrowband selective emitters with a peak emissivity at 9.45 μm made of alternating layers of Al2O3 and SiO2 on a substrate, and broadband selective emitters made of alternating layers of Al2O3 and SiC on a substrate with a high emissivity band between 9.5 μm and 10.5 μm.
