Abstract

In recent years, there has been an increase in environmental awareness and the development of IoT. One technology that has been attracting attention is energy harvesting (EH). EH is a technology that harvests unused energy in our surroundings and converts it into electric energy. Although it cannot generate electricity on a large scale, it is being considered for use in devices that can be driven by low power, such as sensors and communication modules like Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). The high-frequency radio wireless energy focused on in this research is emitted into airspace by many wireless devices and propagates everywhere, but this energy is very weak. In this study, we focused on the electromagnetic waves emitted from UHF-band radio frequency identification (RFID) systems and developed a rectifier circuit that performs RF-DC conversion and boosts the output DC voltage. We also experimented with the proposed circuit to supply power to the sensors and BLE data transmission module.
