“…In the literature, developing a dual-band and dual-polarization receiving antenna for an MEHWS based on a metasurface antenna array has been considered a challenging task due to the need for a complicated design, which includes multiple layers and an intricate corporate feed network, used to channel the output AC and/or DC power [ 1 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 ]. Many studies concentrated on designing a dual-polarized receiving metasurface antenna array [ 13 , 16 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ], and other studies focused on developing a dual-band receiving metasurface antenna array [ 27 , 28 , 29 ].…”

The MEHWSs presented in the literature with dual-polarized and multiband metasurface harvesters are considered complicated and costly systems since most of them utilize a dual-layer configuration design with multiple vias connecting the stacked layers electrically.…”

In this article, we present a simple and novel design of a double-sided metasurface for a dual-band and polarization-independent microwave-energy-harvesting system. The proposed metasurface is constructed from the dual-sided design of 8 × 8 unit cells. Different from the regular dual-band unit cells that contain two loops or multiple shapes of resonators printed in the same layer, the proposed metasurface is based on designing double loops, each combined with two arms of a dipole printed on the top and bottom sides of a single substrate. Thus, the bottom layer is utilized to generate the second frequency band of interest. Three main numerical simulations were conducted to investigate the performance of a single unit cell, a 2 × 2 supercell, and an array of an 8 × 8 metasurface structure. The numerical simulation demonstrated that 98% and 95% of the incident energy is collected at two bands of 1.8 and 6.5 GHz for the proposed harvester.

A dual-band metasurface (MS) with a wide reception angle operating at Wi-Fi bands (2.4 GHz and 5.4 GHz) is presented for electromagnetic (EM) energy harvesting applications. The MS unit cell comprises a subwavelength circular split ring resonator printed on the low-loss substrate. An air layer is sandwiched between two low-loss substrates to enhance the harvesting efficiency at operating frequencies. One of the main advantages of the proposed MS is that it uses only one harvesting port (via) to channel the captured power to the optimized load (50 Ω), which simplifies the design of a combined power network. According to the results of full-wave EM simulations, the proposed MS has a near-unity efficiency of 97% and 94% at 2.4 GHz and 5.4 GHz, respectively, for capturing the power of incident EM waves with normal incidence. Furthermore, the proposed MS harvester achieves good performance at up to 60° oblique incidence. To validate simulations, the MS harvester with 5 × 5-unit cells is fabricated and tested, and its EM properties are measured, showing good agreement with the simulation results. Because of its high efficiency, the proposed MS harvester is suitable for use in various microwave applications, such as energy harvesting and wireless power transfer.
