Multi-sine channel optimization for RF-to-dc performance characterization

Abstract

The main obj ective of this work is to present a characterization system capable of generating diff erent multi-sine signals to optimize the performance of RF-dc converters. The system allows the measurement in real time of the effi ciency of the RF-dc converters, according to diff erent multi-sine signals that are generated by using LabVIEW.In Int er net of Things (IoT) environments, wireless power transfer (WPT) assumes an important role, and RF-dc converters are one of the key technologies for this purpose. Consequently, it is very important to characterize and measure the wireless power transfer devices in order to enhance their behavior and also to improve their performance in 5G scenarios.
