Power Rectifier

This chapter proposes an overview of microwave energy harvesting with focuses on the design of high efficiency low power rectifying circuits. A background survey of RF energy harvesting techniques is presented first. Then, the performances of conventional rectifier topologies are analyzed and discussed. A review of the most efficient rectenna designs, from the state of the art, is also presented. Design considerations for low power rectifier operations are detailed and new high efficient rectifying circuits are designed and evaluated in both GSM and ISM bands under low power constraints.

Simulation Results

To guarantee the uninterrupted operation of an IoT node, IoT nodes are installed with energy harvesting techniques to prolong their lifetime and recharge their batteries. Mostly energy harvesting systems collect energy from sunlight and wind. However, the energy harvested from the sunlight is non-continuous and energy harvested from the wind is insufficient for continuously powering an IoT node. Thus, to resolve this problem, authors proposed an energy harvesting system namely SWEH which harvests energy from solar light and wind. In this article, authors proposed a scheduling algorithm to balance the energy produced by SWEH and the energy consumption of an IoT node that results in the energy neutral system. Results from simulation analysis clearly manifest that the proposed SWEH system extracts more energy as compared to energy produced by a single solar panel or wind turbine. With the help of simulation results, authors also show that the proposed algorithm leaves the system in energy neutral state at the end of particular time frame.
