Analysis of the Strongly Coupled Magnetic Resonant Technology for Wireless Power Transfer

Wireless power transfer (WPT) systems are involved in multiple and heterogeneous applications. This diversity is reflected in several factors such as the amount of power that is transferred or the distance separating the energy source and the receiver. In the current research work, the authors find several groups of technologies that try to adapt the process to the particularities of the application. In this way, wireless power transfer can be achieved with an inductive technology, with a resonant-inductive approach, or with a strongly coupled magnetic resonant configuration. This chapter focuses on strongly coupled magnetic resonant technology, which is appropriate for home applications.
