Abstract
In this paper, we present a novel design of high-efficiency, dual-band and two-branch rectifier for wireless energy harvesting in the 2.45 and 5.8 GHz frequency bands. The rectifier is based on a two conversion circuit; a dual-band voltage doubler for the first branch and a single-diode rectifier for the higher frequency band in order to further enhance in 5.8 GHz the efficiency of the resulting circuit. The rectifier achieves a maximum conversion efficiency of 59.683% for the primary band at 1dBm of incident power, while it reaches in the second band (5.8 GHz) at 3 dBm an efficiency of 51.521%. These results allowed the resulting rectifier to be the most efficient at these frequencies and in particular for the low incident powers compared to other reported designs with the same radio frequency conditions.
