“…The antenna will detect the radio frequency and will convert the electromagnetic wave into voltage response. Due to the amount of RF ambient sources been captured is extremely low, the output of the single patch antenna does not provide sufficient energy [3] to use in any application. Hence, these works were focused on design, simulate and measured of antenna array to capture electromagnetic energy from RF sources that have been radiated by the communication system in the range of 500MHz and 10GHz [4].…”

The design of radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting by using circular planar spiral inductor antenna arrays is proposed. The proposed antenna is a 2x1 circular spiral inductor. The size, return loss and radiation patterns were studied. It is expected that the proposed method is capable of harvesting RF electromagnetic energy more efficiently compared to when using single element spiral antenna. Both circular spiral inductors are fabricated on Roger 4003 substrates. Simulation results show that 5.14dBi gain for antenna array and 3.22dBi gain for single antenna can be achieved at frequency 527MHz. The gain has increased about 37.3% on the antenna array. Besides, practical results show that circular spiral inductor antenna array harvested more energy than a single element antenna. Therefore, the results obtained are a very attractive alternative design solution for energy harvesting system in the future. The array method of the circular spiral inductor antenna is successfully confirmed.
