description This paper demonstrates a Ku-band medium and long distance microwave wireless energy transmission system based on the rectifier diode. The transmitting compact Cassegrain antenna with an aperture of 1.5m forms a more centralized and uniform 2m x 2m field zone, which has more than 80% transmission efficiency. According to the distribution of receiving field, the multiple ways synthesizers connected to rectangular patch arrays are designed. And the results predict that the receiving efficiency of the antenna is directly related to the performance of the system, which reaches 50%, not including the possible insert loss. Besides, the Ku-band rectifying circuit is optimized and measured, and the comparing results show that the practical rectifier diode can obtain more than 40% conversion efficiency at the operating frequency of 12.75GHz. Finally, the microwave wireless energy transmission system is designed, and it finally obtains 4% DC-DC conversion efficiency at a distance of 60m, which is likely to be used in unmanned aerial vehicle hovering charging system, robot charging while working, isolated island wireless power supplying and wireless charging of various sensors.
