Abstract
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is a key technology of Internet of Things (IOT). WSN node is commonly powered by battery. However, battery capacity is limited, which affects the overall performance of WSN. The technology of environmental energy harvesting is presented for power supply of WSN node in this paper. Specifically, the basic voltage doubling rectifier circuit is analyzed, then the microwave voltage doubling rectifier circuit is derived in UHF band, and its main components and parameters are analyzed in detail. Lastly, the four-stages voltage doubling rectifier circuit of 900NHz is designed and simulated using ADS software. The simulation results indicated that the design scheme of voltage doubling rectifier circuit is correct and feasible.
