This paper presents a broadband hybrid slot-dielectric resonator antenna for radiofrequency (RF) energy-harvesting application. The antenna geometry consists of a simple pentagon-shaped dielectric resonator antenna (PDRA) excited by a microstrip feed underlying rectangular slot with narrow notch. It is investigated that the bandwidth of the proposed PDRA is improved significantly owing to electromagnetic coupling between feeding slot and the dielectric resonator. The measured results demonstrate that the proposed PDRA achieves an impedance bandwidth of 110.8%, covering the frequency range from 0.86 to 3 GHz in addition of stable radiation pattern with peak gain of 6.8 dBi and more than 90% radiation efficiency throughout the band, showing its suitability for RF energy harvesting application. For this to be feasible, the developed antenna is matched with the rectifier at two public telecommunication bands of GSM-900 and GSM-1800 using a compact dual-band hybrid matching network. The measured result demonstrates that the proposed dual-band rectenna system provides the peak efficiency of 63 and 59% for a load impedance of 4.7 kΩ at 0.9 and 1.8 GHz, respectively.

Recently, the various methods for RF energy harvesting and reutilizing has become the challenging matter around the world to minimize the wastage of RF energy in the form of electromagnetic waves within the atmosphere. An associate approach of collecting a particular range of frequencies & conversion into dc current- Rectenna is proposed here. Star shaped Dielectric Resonator Antenna is implemented as antenna for receiving RF energy at 2.44 GHz resonant frequency. It is observed that Star shaped DRA exhibits a radiated power of 0.8825 W with respect to 1W incident power and maximum gain of 5.9672 dBi. The RF power received by Antenna is given to a Rectifier circuit via proper impedance matching circuit. The rectified pulsating DC power is given to capacitor filter to suppress harmonics .

A compact rectangular slotted antenna fed through coplanar waveguide for rectenna system is proposed in the application of radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting at center frequency of 2.45 GHz in the wireless local area network (WLAN) band. Three unequal widths of rectangular slots with equal distance have been created step by step to maximize the peak gain to 3.6 dB of the antenna. Radiation plot of the proposed antenna has been depicted to be omnidirectional for RF energy harvesting with maximum radiation efficiency characteristics. The dimension of the antenna is reduced up to 28 × 17 mm2 with better reflection coefficient of -34.6dB.
