Abstract
In this paper, the energy transfer is associated with high frequency band and try to analysis the rectifier circuit structure and characteristics and find ways to maximum efficiency. Input signal at 13.56MHz is converted output DC signal with the experiments and measurements. Rectifier cirsuits can be divided into the half-wave, full-wave, bridge rectifier circuit. Research to the present with the passive components are carried out with a focus on efficiency improvements. Factors affecting the efficiency of rectification is dependent on the characteristics of the device. In this experiment, about 70% efficiency can be measured. By using an improved device for high efficiency could be obtained higher efficiency.
