Radio frequency energy harvesting is one of the new renewable sources that faces some
technical challenges, which limit its performance. This study presents two scenarios to
enhance the harvested power. The first scenario introduces a quad-band voltage multiplier
circuit with a single receiving antenna and four band-pass filters of elliptic type. In this

Mobile Telecommunications System, and Wireless Fidelity frequency bands have been …
Radio frequency energy harvesting is one of the new renewable sources that faces some technical challenges, which limit its performance. This study presents two scenarios to enhance the harvested power. The first scenario introduces a quad-band voltage multiplier circuit with a single receiving antenna and four band-pass filters of elliptic type. In this scenario, four frequencies of the Global System for Mobile communications, Universal Mobile Telecommunications System, and Wireless Fidelity frequency bands have been considered for the study. The second scenario proposes a quad-band voltage multiplier circuit with four receiving antennas at the same frequency bands as the first scenario. High conversion efficiencies were achieved for the two scenarios. The proposed quad-band system developed a harvested power level, sufficient for powering up low power micro-devices with no need for an external power supply.
