My project team is working on energy harvesting RF so here is what we have so far: a 5.8 GHz source which has 27dBm out of the transmitting antenna, 20-100mV out of a rectenna RF-DC circuit connected to the receiving antenna. That being said, we were planning on banking with super caps but the problem is that the super cap matches the source voltage which for un-boosted rf is way too low. We have looked into ultra low booster by Linear Tech but we also wanted to see if anyone on here had any suggestions.
I have been told to look into charging battery packs up to capacity but I was currently unaware of how that would work out so if anyone has an idea on that then please advise or otherwise if you have an idea of how to bank ultra-low DC converted RF then please advise.
