of the diode. From Fig. 6, it is seen that the smaller 6S is, the larger the range of D/Dd is. This shows that we have the higher degree of freedom of design at high latitudes. Conclusions We have discussed the inland rectenna and a hogline type rectenna with a CMSA. Several expressions were obtained which are useful for designing the modified hogline rectenna.
