Abstract:While a range of Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer (SWIPT) rectennas were proposed for wearables, the human-proximity effects on a complex-conjugate matching network-free rectenna remain mostly unknown. This paper reports for the first time the impact of human proximity on a complex conjugate rectenna's impedance. The impedance of a dual-mode SWIPT microstrip/dipole rectenna is measured experimentally for varying separation from the body and on different body positions. The measured input im… Show more
