The world is facing a dangerous pandemic and it is a transmissible virus that infects people who came in contact with the infected person and with the things used by them. Many industries see huge economic losses, and businesses are going ruined. Although, unlock process is started still many industries facing problems due to the increasing rate of Covid positive patients, it is not possible to close working after the detection of individual positive employees. Also, it is difficult to find contacted employees with Covid positive employees. .It became a challenging task to find out how many people came in contact with the infected people. So, to make this process somehow easy we have designed a small device. In this paper, we have described the smart pendent a small device that helps to detect how many people come in contact with the coronavirus infected person. It is a wearable RF device in the form factor of a Pendant, suitable for powering a smart Rf device. An experimental comparison between multistage Cockcroft-Walton and Dickson RF-DC converters shows that the Dickson topology offers higher efficiency at high input power, whereas the Cockcroft- Walton converter performs better for low input power. The pendant can produce up to 23.2 µW at 10.4 m from a commercial isotropic 3 W RF power transmitter.

In this paper, a compact rectifier, capable of harvesting ambient radio frequency (RF) power is proposed. The total size of the rectifier is 45.4 mm × 7.8 mm × 1.6 mm, designed on FR-4 substrate using a single-stage voltage multiplier at 900 MHz. GSM/900 is among the favorable RF Energy Harvesting (RFEH) energy sources that span over a wide range with minimal path loss and high input power. The proposed RFEH rectifier achieves measured and simulated RF-to-dc (RF to direct current) power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 43.6% and 44.3% for 0 dBm input power, respectively. Additionally, the rectifier attained 3.1 V DC output voltage across 2 kΩ load terminal for 14 dBm and is capable of sensing low input power at −20 dBm. The work presents a compact rectifier to harvest RF energy at 900 MHz, making it a good candidate for low powered wireless communication systems as compares to the other state of the art rectifier.
