  • Abstract
    This paper presents study and optimization of diode multiplier including antenna matching problems. Results on a voltage multiplier designed in 0.18μm CMOS process have been shown. It can power a chip at a distance of 10 m with an efficiency of 30%. In this paper, we present a simple analytical model of the complete tag: antenna and chip. This model allows us to explain many results on crucial points of voltage multiplier design. We also present limitations of this kind of structure.
