Abstract :
A method of modeling a diode for use in rectenna design is presented. The method uses measured S-parameters to define values of an equivalent circuit model which is comprised of both voltage-dependent and voltage-independent components which are systematically isolated from one another to allow their values to be determined independently. The model is designed to be used in the Agilent ADS simulation software.
