A system for reducing a rate of capacity loss of a rechargeable battery can include a switch and a controller. The controller can be configured to produce, at a frequency and during a normal operation of the rechargeable battery to provide electrical power to a power-consuming device, a sequence of pulses. A pulse, of the sequence of pulses, can have a duty cycle that defines: (1) a first portion of the pulse during which the switch is positioned to connect the power-consuming device to the rechargeable battery and (2) a second portion of the pulse during which the switch is positioned to connect the power-consuming device to a secondary electrical power source. For example, interrupting a discharge of the rechargeable battery (e.g., during a normal operation of the rechargeable battery to provide electrical power to the power-consuming device) can reduce a rate of degradation of the rechargeable battery.

An RF signal (RF0) is input to a rectifier circuit and rectified to obtain a DC signal (DC1) converted by an output part into a DC signal DC2 suitable for charging a battery, and output to the battery 100. In the power circuit, the intensity of RF0 and the voltage and current of DC1 are recognized, and DC2 output from the output part is controlled accordingly. A DC input monitor circuit monitors the values of the voltage and current of DC1. The output part and the battery can be considered as a virtual load resistance from the perspective of the side of the preceding rectifier circuit. A power conversion efficiency from RF0 to DC2 depends on RL. An output adjustment part compares the recognized RL with the value of RL at which the conversion efficiency η peaks and controls increase/decrease of the current of DC2 accordingly.
