Abstract
This paper introduces the basic principle of microwave rectifier and the characteristics of lowpower microwave, and analyzes the structure and performance of existing low-power microwave rectifier circuit. Based on this, a new design scheme of low power microwave rectifier circuit is proposed, including the selection of key components, parameter design and circuit simulation and optimization. In order to improve the circuit performance, the optimization strategy is also discussed, mainly from the circuit structure, component parameters, layout and process, intelligent control and adaptive optimization. Through these means, the aim is to improve the efficiency of rectification, reduce loss, for the efficient use of low-power microwave energy to provide a theoretical and technical support.
