Development of A C band rectenna for microwave power transmission toward a space robot

For the miniaturization of microwave power transmission systems, a rectenna with a higher frequency than a conventional S band rectenna is desirable. In this paper, we present a C band rectenna element operating at the 5.8 GHz ISM frequency, and show its application in a multi-joint robot on a space...

Summary:For the miniaturization of microwave power transmission systems, a rectenna with a higher frequency than a conventional S band rectenna is desirable. In this paper, we present a C band rectenna element operating at the 5.8 GHz ISM frequency, and show its application in a multi-joint robot on a space platform.
