The free-positioning wireless power transfer (WPT) system has drawn attention in recent years. Traditionally, a WPT system can transfer energy in one or two directions on the same plane, but it leads the restrictions of angle and axis misalignment between a transmitter and a receiver coil. In this paper, we propose a free-positioning WPT system using a three-dimensional cubic-shaped transmitting coil for portable device charging. A small receiving coil is placed inside the transmitter to achieve the transferred energy through the magnetic resonant coupling. In addition, the equivalent circuit and the mutual inductance between the Tx and Rx coils are analyzed. Finally, a practical experiment is implemented to verify the transfer performance, which can reach up to about 50% power transfer efficiency. The proposed system can charge in spatial freedom.

Active implantable medical devices (AIMDs) like implantable cardiac pacemakers play very important role in extending lives of patients with some cardiovascular diseases. The life of implantable device depends on life of battery. If this device can be charged from outside with power transfer device, then the cost of surgical procedures for patient can be saved. One must ensure, while transferring this power there should not be any abnormal effect on human body tissues. Wireless recharging of such devices through magnetic resonant coupling is of concern and hence the topic of more research to have uninterrupted supply from battery. The technique of wireless power transfer, primary or transmitting coil is assumed to be on body and receiver coil is assumed to be inside the human body. Several critical aspects need to be studied while designing coil for wireless power transfer (WPT). One of which is choice of operational frequency. In this research experiment, designed circuit is tested for checking power transfer was studied. Effect of the distance between primary and secondary coil affects the efficiency of power transfer. Authors also tied to test this for using different medium like air, placing 80 GSM paper and cloth. It is found that the medium between the primary and secondary affects the transfer of power. Careful thought needs to be given while designing power transfer system.

For the patients with some cardiovascular diseases, implantable devices like implantable cardiac pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators play a very important role. The life of implantable device is limited by the life of battery and the size of implanted device is dependent on size of battery. More life of battery demands larger battery size. Since these devices are implanted inside the human body, they must be small in size as well as of long battery life. Wireless re-charging of such devices can only be the solution to reduce the size and increase life of AIMDs. Wireless recharging by magnetic resonance coupling in less time is expected and hence this topic is considered for more research to have uninterrupted power supply from battery. Selection of operating frequency for transfer of power wirelessly is of great concern as it requires attention towards certain guidelines as basic restrictions provided by International Commission on non-ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). With lower frequencies used for power transfer, the efficiency would be less whereas with higher frequencies efficiency would be higher but with the use of higher frequencies for power transfer certain biological issues needs attention like tissue heating. In the technique of wireless power transfer, the transmitting coil is assumed to be outside the body and receiver coil is considered to be inside the human body above the pacemaker shell. The efficiency of power transfer is affected by frequency for power transfer and distance between the two coils.

A Wireless Power Transfer system consists of a transmitter coil which is inductively coupled with secondary coil and is popular for wireless charging of future office communication system. Wireless power transfer is used in different applications ranging from mobile chargers to charging stations. In this paper simulation of Wireless Power Transfer for future office communication systems has been conducted over Maxwell 3d of Ansys electromagnetic suite. The input frequency of primary coil is varied from 1kHz -120kHz with respect to the change in resonant capacitance and observed that input frequency between 20kHz-30 kHz, the output power in secondary coil appears to be maximum at variable distances between transmitter coil and receiver coil. There is an improvement of 72% seen in the output power of secondary coil for 25kHz input frequency of primary coil as compared with 40kHz input frequency. This model can be helpful to design future Office Communication systems for charging the mobile phones, Laptops and to turn on the printer wirelessly.

Field Area

A solenoid supplied by alternating current (AC) voltage generates electromagnetic which has a field area depends on the level of supplied voltage and current flows through the solenoid. The electromagnetic filed can be captured by the other solenoid in the field area. This concept can be applied in a wireless power transfer (WPT) as presented in this paper. The WPT has transmitter coil and receiver coil which each has form of solenoid. The transmitter coil is connected a half bridge circuit to generate AC voltage on the transmitter coil which transferred to the receiver coil. In the experimental set up, the receiver coil is supplied by DC voltage source and it is changed to observe its effect on the voltage and current on the transmitter and receiver coil of the WPT system.

Splitting Effect

Wireless power transfer technology via magnetic resonance coupling now has significant interest in industry and research with many applications. This paper proposes a linear multiple transmitter coil array (5 coils) for wireless power transfer for added gain and hence higher transfer efficiency in comparison to a single transmitter coil. The frequency splitting effect as a result of the coupling between the resonant transmitter coils due to their close proximity is shown to reduce the transfer efficiency to a receiver. The effect of the array spacing on splitting effect suppression is verified. It is shown that the splitting effect is sup-pressed as the distance between the coils is increased leading to a higher received signal and hence higher efficiency. Proposed horizontal displacement of the middle transmitter coils (2nd and 4th coils) in the coil array is shown to suppress frequency splitting. To further suppress the splitting effect due to the magnetic coupling between the transmitter coils, a multiple transmitter array is proposed with different coil turns. Thus it is shown that designing the multiple coil array with mixed number of coil turns (the 2nd and 4th coils are designed to have different number of turns as compared to the other three coils) causes uniform coupling among the coils reducing and eventually eliminating the splitting effect. Also to increase the efficiency at the receiver coil, displaced stacked coils are introduced on top of the coil array. The pro-posed stacked coil array is demonstrated to improve the transfer efficiency. Using the techniques, the proposed linear array structure achieves a transfer efficiency of 36.9% for a receiver coil at the boresight of the array at a transfer distance of 40 cm.
