Receiving System Converts RF to DC (.PDF Download)

Aug. 1, 2016

Changing energy from one form to another, such as solar radiation from sunlight to dc voltage, can help meet the growing global demands for energy in the years ahead. In the near term, it is also a practical means of providing power for remote sensors and other electronic devices that must be “set and forget” as part of Internet of Things (IoT) applications.  Even when such devices are in standby mode, awaiting a signal, they consume energy and require a power source...
