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.

In this paper, a new transformerless high voltage gain dc-dc converter is proposed for low and medium power application. The proposed converter has high quadratic gain and utilizes only two inductors to achieve this gain. It has two switches that are operated simultaneously, making control of the converter easy. The proposed converter’s output voltage gain is higher than the conventional quadratic boost converter and other recently proposed high gain quadratic converters. A voltage multiplier circuit (VMC) is integrated with the proposed converter, which significantly increases the converter’s output voltage. Apart from a high output voltage, the proposed converter has low voltage stress across switches and capacitors, which is a major advantage of the proposed topology. A hardware prototype of 200 W of the proposed converter is developed in the laboratory to validate the converter’s performance. The efficiency of the converter is obtained through PLECS software by incorporating the switching and conduction losses.

This paper presents a high voltage gain of a DC-DC converter. The proposed system consists of voltage multiplier circuits and a coupled inductor of a boost DC-DC converter. The input voltage of the voltage multiplier circuit is the induced voltage of inductor at a boost DC-DC converter. The field programmable gate array (FGPA) is used for generating the control signal of the proposed system. To verify the proposed circuit, an experiment was conducted from the prototype circuit. The proposed circuit can step-up the voltage with high voltage gain. Moreover, the voltage across the switch is very low.
