Abstract :
A need exists for small devices, capable of simultaneously receiving data an power. Through connecting one or more Schottky diodes in parallel to a small loop antenna and further employing a capacitor it is possible to receive data and DC power simultaneously. Through using analytical equations the device may be optimized for data and/or power reception.
