In the proposed work, first a pentagonal patch antenna is designed at centre frequency 5 GHz and simulated using Ansoft HFSS and found that the antenna resonates at three frequency 5 GHz, 10.7 GHz and 14.2 GHz. In the next step a low pass filter cornered around 5 GHz is designed and integrated with a pentagonal patch antenna. Analysis of obtained structure shows only one resonance at 5 GHz with a return loss of around 15 dB hence eliminates two harmonics of 10.7 GHz and 14.2 GHz. Then for rectification purpose, a Schottky diode is characterized at 5 GHz as well as the proposed antenna structure is matched to the optimal complex impedance, consequently the RF-DC conversion efficiency of the rectenna is found to be 54%.","PeriodicalId":286435,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Microwave and Photonics (ICMAP)","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116043856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The convergence of the series is accelerated using Chebyshev-Toeplitz algorithm. The resonant length calculated using this simple and accurate analysis is shown to be in close agreement with measured results and with other theoretical results.
