This paper presents a microstrip patch array rectenna for radio frequency (RF) enegry harvesting at 2.45 GHz. The rectenna configuration consists of a 2×1 rectangular patches and seven stages Hillard voltage multiplier circuit, respectively. The antenna is designed to have high gain and able to capt...
