Summary:
A high efficient rectenna is designed by a microstrip patch antenna with an artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) at 2.4 GHz. The antenna with the AMC structure provides high directivity which results in high efficiency for the rectenna application. The proposed rectenna achieves RF to DC conversion efficiency of 61.4% at 2.4 GHz.
