Hi everyone, currently, I tried to make a rectifier simulation using the shunt single diode topology with HSMS2860 diode model as in the attached figure. But after calculating the efficiency, it showed that the highest efficiency is only about 60% at Pin=18dBm and RL=100 Ohm. However, I have read several papers also using HSMS2860 with the same topology, the efficiency can reach over 70%, sometime nearly 80% with higher load resistance. Can someone help me point my errors and give me some recommendation.
