Learning outcomes
The course aims at providing the rules for the analysis and design of a wireless link for the transmission of RF electromagnetic energy, exploiting both radiative techniques, by means of active antennas at the transmitter side and rectenna (rectifying antennas) at the receiver side, and non-radiative ones by inductive and capacitive coupling.The main non-linearities responsible for energy conversion, from RF to dc and vice versa, is studied and CAD tools based on the harmonic balancing technique are studied.The design process is also experimented by means of real-life systems based on simple energy reception systems for both radiation and reactive coupling mechanisms.
