The proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has led to an increasing demand for efficient and sustainable energy sources to power these autonomous systems. Radio Frequency (RF) energy harvesting has emerged as a promising solution, capitalizing on the omnipresent RF signals in our environment. This article presents the design and analysis of a Dual-Port Multiband RF-to-DC Converter using a multi-stage Cockcroft Walton Voltage Multiplier (CWVM) topology, which is tailored to meet the specific needs of IoT energy harvesting applications. Impedance matching is achieved by the implementation of L-network and π-network using distributed elements. The proposed design enables simultaneous energy harvesting across six bands from 0.87 to 2.5 GHz. It exhibits peak efficiency of 66% and 62% at 10kΩ and 18kΩ, respectively. The multiband feature enhances the energy acquisition versatility. The key parameters, including impedance matching, output voltage, and conversion efficiency, are simultaneously analyzed and optimized for all the frequency bands to achieve the desired performance. The proposed design performance is compared with the recent converter designs in literature, which shows that this research contributes to the ongoing development of energy-efficient solutions for IoT devices, addressing the critical need for prolonged autonomy of IoT devices and reduced reliance on traditional power sources.

The increasing demand for wireless Internet of Things (IoT) calls for power efficient RF energy harvesting approach. The current dominant single-band RF energy harvesting front-end system restricts itself to a single frequency, which is at the risk of ineffective operation when the harvesting frequency is unavailable. This paper reviews and explores the alternative approach of a multiband RF energyharvesting front-end system. It covers all essential circuitry of a multiband RF energy harvesting front-end system, starting from the recent RF surveys which investigate the typical, usable, and high-strength RF input, to the overview of the state-of-the-art antenna, impedance matching network (IMN), and RF-DC rectifier. The recent advancement of the multiple RF input harvesting abilities, reflection loss minimization, and performance improvement are comprehensively reviewed for different operating conditions, and this review also presents the advantages and disadvantages of the different circuit architecture combinations for multiband RF energy harvesting front-end systems. In summary, this review aims to fill the research gap in the further advancement of multiband RF energy harvesting towards enhancing its performance through optimal circuit integration of the front-end system.INDEX TERMS CMOS, power conversion efficiency (PCE), multiband RF energy harvesting, RF power transmission.

This article presents a review of different types of miniaturized rectenna integrated circuits IC used for energy harvesting applications such as medical applications. The rectenna design consists of two basic components: an embedded antenna that collects radio-frequency RF energy from the surrounding environment, and the rectifier circuit that converts AC-RF energy values into DC voltage for usage in low-power electronics devices such as implantable medical devices (IMDs). Microwave Schottky diodes HSMS-285x and SMS-763x series are used as a voltage doubler rectifier with an implanted antenna to improve conversion efficiency and the output voltage at a given input power and appropriate load.There are many challenges in the implantable rectenna IC design such as biocompatibility, miniaturization, patient safety, compact size, resonant frequency, bandwidth, radiation efficiency, and insensitivity to detuning. This review article summarizes the overall rectenna research carried out for new different design strategies in implant medical applications that operated at industrial scientific, and medical (ISM) bands such as 2.45GHz and 5.8GHz.
