The source impedance is the impedance of an antenna (50 Ohms), the rectifier impedance is 20.043 +j222.779. (Zin = Vin/I_Probe1.i) Am i doing something wrong ? I was expecting something near to 50 Ohms to real part, and 0 to the imaginary part...

Click to expand... You are looking at normalized impedance values. 0.99616*50 = 49.808 Ohms Uncheck the Normalize option at the top.

Click to expand... I know that's the normalized impedance showed in smith chart tool. My question is: why in my simulated circuit which the Zin(Impedance of the rectificator) is in the first image(Real and imaginary part) i dont get 50+j*0 but 25.506+j*13.420 My Circuit Input Impedance Thanks
