scholarly journals Near-Field Wireless Power and Data Transmission Through two-wire Power Carrier

These days wireless power transfer is the widely used technology to transmit power and information simultaneously. In this paper, the magnetic induction principle is used to transfer power and information simultaneously through a single winding arrangement. It is shown that a 7W LED lamp can be illuminated between a distance of about 5mm. Magnetic induction principle can be applied to a short-range power and information transfer only. This paper discusses the underwater LED light luminaire transmitter and receiver design components, along with it shows the mode switching of LED. The power transfer efficiency is about 65% when the transmitter and receiver are placed in-line and power efficiency decreases with the displacement of the lamp to either side.

Inductively coupled resonant wireless power transfer (WPT) systems can be used as a wireless power and information transfer (WPIT) system by properly adding the function of varying Rx loads. A new metric for the figure of merit for information transfer from Rx to Tx is proposed as the ratio of Tx input impedances for the Rx shorted and optimum loads to systematically assess the information transfer. While most of WPT and near-field communication (NFC) devices have been adopted for very short distances between Tx and Rx, this work shows that the WPIT systems using inductively coupled resonant structures with high Q-factor coils enable much longer working distances with the best power transfer efficiency and information transfer capability. Several design examples show that the newly proposed figure of merit for information transfer is an essential metric in the understanding and design of WPIT systems. The theory is validated with circuit and electromagnetic simulations for various system configurations.

AbstractOver the past few years, interest and research in wireless power transfer (WPT) have been rapidly incrementing, and as an effect, this is a remarkable technology in many electronic devices, electric vehicles and medical devices. However, most of the applications have been limited to very close distances because of efficiency concerns. Even though the inductive power transfer technique is becoming relatively mature, it has not shown near-field results more than a few metres away transmission. This review is focused on two fundamental aspects: the power efficiency and the transmission distance in WPT systems. Introducing the principles and the boundaries, scientific articles will be reviewed and discussed in terms of their methods and respective challenges. This paper also shows more important results in efficiency and distance obtained, clearly explaining the theory behind and obstacles to overcome. Furthermore, an overlook in other aspects and the latest research studies for this technology will be given. Moreover, new issues have been raised including safety and security.

Single-tube loop coil (STLC) and multi-turn copper wire coil (MTCWC) wireless power transfer (WPT) methods are proposed in this study to overcome the challenges of battery life during low-power home appliance operations. Transfer power, efficiency, and distance are investigated for charging mobile devices on the basis of the two proposed systems. The transfer distances of 1–15 cm are considered because the practicality of this range has been proven to be reliable in the current work on mobile device battery charging. For STLC, the Li-ion battery is charged with total system efficiencies of 86.45%, 77.08%, and 52.08%, without a load, at distances of 2, 6, and 15 cm, respectively. When the system is loaded with 100 Ω at the corresponding distances, the transfer efficiencies are reduced to 80.66%, 66.66%, and 47.04%. For MTCWC, the battery is charged with total system efficiencies of 88.54%, 75%, and 52.08%, without a load, at the same distances of 2, 6, and 15 cm. When the system is loaded with 100 Ω at the corresponding distances, the transfer efficiencies are drastically reduced to 39.52%, 33.6%, and 15.13%. The contrasting results, between the STLC and MTCWC methods, are produced because of the misalignment between their transmitters and receiver coils. In addition, the diameter of the MTCWC is smaller than that of the STLC. The output power of the proposed system can charge the latest smartphone in the market, with generated output powers of 5 W (STLC) and 2 W (MTCWC). The above WPT methods are compared with other WPT methods in the literature.

Abstract The main challenge in near-field wireless power transfer systems is the increase of power transfer efficiency. It can be achieved by reducing ohmic or radiation losses of the resonators included in the system. In this paper, we propose and investigate numerically a non-radiating near-field wireless power transfer system based on transmitter and receiver implemented as dielectric disk resonators. The transmitter and receiver geometrical parameters are numerically optimized to operate at the frequency of non-radiating state of high refractive index dielectric resonators instead of magnetic dipole mode. Under the non-radiating state, we determine the frequency with almost zero radiation to the far-field. We numerically study the wireless power transfer efficiency as a function of operation distance between the transmitter and receiver and demonstrate that the higher efficiency compared to magnetic dipole mode can be achieved at non-radiating state for a fixed distance due to suppression of the radiation loss.

A metamaterial-inspired efficient electrically small antenna is proposed, firstly. And then several improving power transfer efficiency (PTE) methods for wireless power transfer (WPT) systems composed of the proposed antenna in the radiating near-field region are investigated. Method one is using a proposed antenna as a power retriever. This WPT system consisted of three proposed antennas: a transmitter, a receiver, and a retriever. The system is fed by only one power source. At a fixed distance from receiver to transmitter, the distance between the transmitter and the retriever is turned to maximize power transfer from the transmitter to the receiver. Method two is using two proposed antennas as transmitters and one antenna as receiver. The receiver is placed between the two transmitters. In this system, two power sources are used to feed the two transmitters, respectively. By adjusting the phase difference between the two feeding sources, the maximum PTE can be obtained at the optimal phase difference. Using the same configuration as method two, method three, where the maximum PTE can be increased by regulating the voltage (or power) ratio of the two feeding sources, is proposed. In addition, we combine the proposed methods to construct another two schemes, which improve the PTE at different extent than classical WPT system.

AbstractThis paper gives an overview of optimizing wireless power transfer systems using magnetic coupling. Optimization aims to maximize either the power transfer efficiency or the transferred power. The resulting load calculation and matching strategies are revisited. Moreover, the coupling system is described, starting with its equivalent circuit and scattering parameters. In addition to wireless power transfer, communication in RFID and NFC systems and its frequency characteristics and bandwidth issues are highlighted. The focus in this paper is on load modulation for data transfer between a tag and reader. For this purpose, subcarrier voltages are derived using time-domain as well as frequency-domain signal analysis.

Electronic devices usually operate in a variable loading condition and the power transfer efficiency of the accompanying wireless power transfer (WPT) method should be optimizable to a variable load. In this paper, a reconfigurable WPT technique is introduced to maximize power transfer efficiency in a weakly coupled, variable load wireless power transfer application. A series-series two-coil wireless power network with resonators at a frequency of 150 kHz is presented and, under a variable loading condition, a shunt capacitor element is added to compensate for a maximum efficiency state. The series capacitance element of the secondary resonator is tuned to form a resonance at 150 kHz for maximum power transfer. All the capacitive elements for the secondary resonators are equipped with reconfigurability. Regardless of the load resistance, this proposed approach is able to achieve maximum efficiency with constant power delivery and the power present at the load is only dependent on the input voltage at a fixed operating frequency. A comprehensive circuit model, calculation and experiment is presented to show that optimized power transfer efficiency can be met. A 50 W WPT demonstration is established to verify the effectiveness of this proposed approach.
