Sorry, I don't know how to do it.  If I did, I would be working on the
project.  Near as I can see it is one of those technically possible,
but economically impossible projects.

They can claim land if needed.

This is the problem with talking to people who don't have the
background, in this case device physics (diodes).  You cannot reduce
the power density without the output rapidly going to zero.  The
rectenna diodes must forward conduct to get any power out of them at
all.
