Abstract

This paper presents the design and analysis of different rectifier configurations using the SMS7630 Schottky diode in RF energy-harvesting applications. This study focuses on achieving maximum power transfer between the antenna and the rectifier by employing a reconfigurable impedance-matching circuit. The designed impedance-matching circuit successfully achieved a reflection coefficient (S11) below −10 dB across a range of frequencies from 1.5GHz to 5.6GHz. The performance and effectiveness of the rectifier designs and the impedance-matching circuit were evaluated using Advanced Design System (ADS) software. The results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed approach in optimising power transfer efficiency for RF energy-harvesting systems within the specified frequency range.
