Abstract :
High-impedance wideband folded dipole antennas (FDAs) are proposed for energy harvesting applications in order to obtain high rectification efficiency. Design method of the FDA is discussed based on an equivalent circuit, and condition of high-impedance wideband characteristics is expressed with equations. As design examples, straight-type and card-type FDAs are described for the digital TV broadcasting waves in Japan.
