Abstract

Flexible antennas for harvesting electromagnetic energy are described. The flexible antenna may be a far field antenna and may comprise a flexible substrate, a first metal layer disposed on one side of the flexible substrate, and a second metal layer disposed on an opposite side of the flexible substrate. The first and second metal layers may be connected through one or more vias. The first metal layer may be sized to capture electromagnetic energy at a frequency in an ISM band.
