“…In the study by Palazzi et al [45], a new compact ultra-weight multiband RF energy harvester was introduced that was produced on a paper substrate. A new rectenna design was proposed by Cambero et al [46] for solar and RF energy harvesting. Almohaimeed, Amaya, Lima, and Yagoub [47] proposed and implemented an adaptive rectifier concept to address the problem of the early breakdown that occurs in conventional rectifiers while demonstrating a high level of efficiency over a wide range of RF input power levels.…”

The investigation into new sources of energy with the highest efficiency which are derived from existing energy sources is a significant research area and is attracting a great deal of interest. Radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting is a promising alternative for obtaining energy for wireless devices directly from RF energy sources in the environment. An overview of the energy harvesting concept will be discussed in detail in this paper. Energy harvesting is a very promising method for the development of self-powered electronics. Many applications, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), smart environments, the military or agricultural monitoring depend on the use of sensor networks which require a large variety of small and scattered devices. The low-power operation of such distributed devices requires wireless energy to be obtained from their surroundings in order to achieve safe, self-sufficient and maintenance-free systems. The energy harvesting circuit is known to be an interface between piezoelectric and electro-strictive loads. A modern view of circuitry for energy harvesting is based on power conditioning principles that also involve AC-to-DC conversion and voltage regulation. Throughout the field of energy conversion, energy harvesting circuits often impose electric boundaries for devices, which are important for maximizing the energy that is harvested. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) is described as the ratio between the rectifier’s output DC power and the antenna-based RF-input power (before its passage through the corresponding network).

The design and implementation's novelty simultaneously utilizes the antenna's frequency, polarization, and feed structure to maximize the harvested RF energy and become a microstrip communication circuit for wireless sensor or communication systems in IoT devices. In addition, the optimization of the parallel circuit configuration has a voltage doubler model with an integrated parallel system and thin-film solar cells. Implementation of the antenna structure has two-line feeds in one antenna. Usage both feeds have the same function as CPW circular polarization. Another advantage is that there is no miss-configuration when installing the port exchanges when using both output ports simultaneously. The 2-port antenna has an area of 1/2 per port (where accessible wavelengths work well at the 2.4 GHz frequency). It has been shown to achieve a relatively narrow bandwidth of 86.5 percent covering WiFi frequency band networks and IoT communications. It does not require additional filters and analog matching circuits that cause power loss in the transmission process in parallel voltage doubler circuits. Integrating a reflector on the CPW antenna with two ports for placement of thin-film solar cells provides antenna gain of up to 8.2 dB. It provides a wide beam range with directional radiation. Using a multi-stage parallel to increase voltage output and integrated with a thin-film solar cell converter proves efficient in the 2.4 GHz frequency band. When the transmission power density is -16.15 dBm with a tolerance of 0.023, the novel energy harvester configuration circuit can produce an output voltage of 54 mV dc without adding solar cell energy. And Integrated thin-film solar cell a light beam of 300 lux in the radiation beam area of -16.15 dBm, the energy obtained has a value of 1,74467V. It also shows that the implementation of this configuration can produce an optimal dc output voltage in the actual indoor and outdoor ambient settings. The optimization of antenna implementation and the communication process with Multiple signal classifications improves the configuration of antennas that are close to each other and have identical phase outputs. It is instrumental and efficient when applied to IoT devices.
