Design of a Highly Efficient N-Stage Harmonic Terminated Voltage Multiplier for Wireless Power Transfer

This paper proposes a 5.8 GHz highly efficient rectifier design using harmonic termination for wireless power transfer. The diode used to convert the received RF power to DC is a non-linear device, and a harmonic component is generated, which causes performance degradation. Therefore, in this paper,...
