Abstract
This paper describes the photovoltaic solar cell like receiver for electromagnetic waves in VHF-UHF bands and the application of photovoltaic solar cell in planar antenna structures. The radiating patch element of a planar antenna is replaced by a solar cell. Furthermore radiating slots are built due to the cell spacing in a solar cell array. The original feature of a solar cell (DC current generation) remains, but additionally the solar cell is now able to receive and transmit electromagnetic waves, because the electromagnetic radiation is an important source of interference on the useful signals in the electric and electromagnetic devices.
