Abstract
In this paper, the circularly polarized (CP) antenna is proposed based on the loop antenna for ambient RF energy harvesting (RFEH) applications. This loop antenna is meandered to achieve a compact size of 30 mm × 50 mm. The proposed CP meandered-loop antenna has a measured bandwidth of 150 MHz at – 10 dB with a center frequency of 2.14 GHz for 3G and 4G technologies. A maximum of 62 % RF-DC conversion efficiency is obtained using the proposed CP antenna and a load of 1.2 KΩ when the power of the incident wave is 0 dBm.
