Abstract

In this paper, a 5.8 GHz π-stub decoupling network is proposed to improve the performance of a receiving antenna array (RAA) in microwave wireless power transmission (MWPT) systems. A set of general design formulas was derived for determining the electric parameters of the required π-stubs. To validate the new technique, a π-stub decoupling network was combined with RAAs. The simulated and measured results show that the performance of the RAA is greatly improved by loading the π-stub decoupling network. In addition, a miniaturized MWPT system was built. System-level measurements indicate that the novel decoupling network enhances the receiving power of the RAA by up to 36.4%. An extended application also shows the scalability and effectiveness of the network, implying its huge potential in large-scale receiving arrays.
