This paper presents an improvement on the RF-DC rectifier with the self-bias diode-connected MOS transistors to achieve a wide input power range. The proposed design utilized a dual voltage polarity to bias the rectifying PMOS and NMOS with a positive and negative DC potential respectively. This bia...
