Novasolix has invented a self assembling antenna array solar cell which will be 2 4 times more efficient at a less than one tenth the cost per watt of existing solar. The integrated patch antennas are designed to have sufficient optical transparency to ensure the proper functionality of the solar cells. They will reach nearly 90 efficiency versus 20 for todays solar panels. The solar cell is used as a parasitic element in a tag antenna.

The original feature of a solar cell dc current generation remains and the solar cell which can supply the energy to activate the ic is now used as a parasitic patch at the same time. The isolation between solar cells and the integrated antenna is studied through in which a circularly polarized antenna which used solar cells as it s metasurface with 100 insolation between them. A prototype meshed patch antenna is designed and integrated on after market solar cells. This antenna with circular polarization and directional pattern impelled the idea of developing a solar cell integrated navigation antenna.

The sub arrays of the integrated antennas with solar cells should not be fed all at time but an electronic feeding network will have to allow for a continuous rotation of the beam that opposes to the satellite spinning. 1 a shows a lateral view of an amorphous silicon solar 5. A circularly polarized cp patch antenna loaded with a metasurface which is realized with a lattice of 4 4 square solar cells is presented. This paper presents a novel rfid antenna which makes solar cell and tag antenna combine as an integrated unit.

A prototype meshed patch antenna is designed and. This chapter contains sections titled. The antenna has an optical transparency of 93 and the measurements agree well with the design. An optical rectenna is a rectenna rectifying antenna that works with visible or infrared light.
