A Design of Ambient RF Energy Harvester with Sensitivity of −21 dBm and Power Efficiency of a 39.3% Using Internal Threshold Voltage Compensation

In this paper, a low-power reconfigurable ambient Radio Frequency to Direct Current power (RF–DC) converter using an internal threshold voltage cancellation (IVC) scheme with an auxiliary transistors block is presented. A maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm is implemented in orde...
