Compact CPW-fed open end square loop monopole antenna is presented. The antenna can harvest ambient power at different radio frequencies of 1.8, 1.9, 2.4 and 5.2 GHz. The multi-band coplanar waveguide antenna (MCPW) is designed and fabricated on a very thin and lowprofile substrate. The proposed antenna is used to measure the ambient spectrum in two different places. One of them is indoor and the other is outdoor, in order to see the effect of the place on the proposed energy harvesting system. A multi-band rectifier circuit is designed and integrated with the proposed antenna. The maximum simulation efficiency is 60.98% at 1.9 GHz and -1 dBm input power. The maximum measured efficiency is 60.57% at 2.5 GHz and -1 dBm RF received power. Also, the proposed rectenna has 53.1% measured efficiency at 2.5 GHz and RF received power of -5 dBm.
