RF Energy Transfer Using Hybrid Power Combining for Randomly Polarized Incident Waves

Abstract

In this dissertation, the hybrid power combining for randomly polarized incident wave has been proposed. To overcome short angle operation of RF combining and low power sensitivity of DC combining, hybrid power combining is proposed and analyzed. To improve the stability of RF energy receiving system depends on polarization angle, dual polarization is presented. RF energy transfer system is configured with the proposed hybrid power combining and dual polarization to verify the theoretical analysis.
