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.

“…This technique enables an increase in the overall efficiency of the receiving antenna without necessitating any expansion in its dimensions. [12]. This behaviour is achieved by incorporating modifications in the architecture of the antenna, such as the introduction of slots, split ring resonators, parasitic patch [12], defected ground, fractal components etc.…”

This research article presents design, simulation and analysis of a novel meanderline microstrip patch rectenna to harvest energy from the 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz frequency bands. The research is approached in two stages. In the first stage, a meanderline microstrip patch antenna offering improved bandwidth, radiation characteristics, and impedance matching is considered. The antenna is constructed on an FR4 substrate, with the radiating patch positioned between the substrate and a solid ground plane. A feedline strip is incorporated in the radiating patch to excite the antenna. An impedance-matching network was designed and implemented in the simulation. A multiband rectifier is utilized to convert RF power into usable output DC voltage. HSMS 2850 Schottky diodes are used to further improve efficiency. The performance of the proposed system is evaluated using Keysight Advanced Design System, taking into account metrics like return loss, radiation pattern, output voltage, and power harvesting efficiency.The proposed rectenna achieved a bandwidth of 1.2 GHz, with a gain of 3.56 dBi at 2.40 GHz and 8.06 dBi at 5.02 GHz. The rectenna demonstrated an output voltage of 3.65 V at an input power level of 30 dBm and -2 mV at -5 dBm input power level. A peak conversion efficiency of 83% was obtained for the overall system. The analysis of simulation and experimental results demonstrated an improved performance of the antenna in terms of increased bandwidth and enhanced power harvesting capabilities.

This paper introduces a design and optimization procedure of multiband fractal slot antennas for RF energy harvesting applications. The antennas were simulated using CST Studio Suite. A parametric study is conducted to determine the critical structural parameters that influence the antenna performance. The parametric study included varying the size ratio of the structure, the shape of the ground plane and the length of the feeding inset. Simulation results showed that the proposed antennas in this work exhibit multiband performance and they offer the possibility of controlling the resonant frequency at any specific frequency band. The optimized antenna has seven resonant frequencies at 1.8 GHz, 2.4 GHz, 3.45 GHz, 3.6 GHz, 4 GHz, 4.6 GHz and 5.3 GHz covering several ambient communication networks (GSM, UMTS and 5G), Bluetooth and WLAN systems. Simulation results shows that Antenna 1 has achieved a gain of more than 4.5 dBi at all the resonant frequencies with a radiation efficiency ranged between 87%–95%; whereas Antenna 2 has achieved more than 3 dBi gain at lower frequencies while reaching around 7 dBi at higher frequencies with a radiation efficiency ranged between 80%–97%. Finally, two fractal slot antennas were fabricated and tested in the lab to validate the simulation results and to proof the concept of the feasibility of this type of antennas for this application. Experimental results showed a good agreement with simulations.
