 What is wireless power transmission(WPT)?
 Why is WPT?
 History of WPT
 Types and Technologies of WPT
 Advantages and disadvantages
 Applications
 Conclusion
 As the word wireless means “without wire”.
 The transmission of energy from one place to another
without using wires
 Wireless transmission is useful in cases where
interconnecting wires are inconvenient, hazardous or
impossible.
 Reliable
 Efficient
 Fast
 Low maintenance cost
 Can be used for short-range or longrange.
 Nikola Tesla in late 1890s
 His vision for “World Wireless System”
 The 187 feet tall tower to broadcast energy
 1961: William C. Brown publishes an article exploring
possibilities of microwave power transmission
 2009: Sony shows a wireless electrodynamics-
induction powered TV set, 60 W over 50 cm tower to
broadcast energy
Different methods of transmission proposed by different
scientistand scholars are:
 1. Atmosphericconduction method of Tesla
 2. Electrodynamic induction method:
 Microwave method
 Laser method
“ Energy is transferred between the earth’s surface and
the atmosphere via conduction convection, and
radiation.
Conduction is the process by which heat energy is
transmitted through contact with neighboring
molecules. …..Since air is a poor conductor , most
energy transfer by conduction occurs right at the earth’s
surface.”
 Near-field techniques
Inductive Coupling
Resonant Inductive Coupling
Air Ionization
 Far-field techniques
Microwave Power Transmission (MPT)
LASER power transmission
 Primary and secondary coils are not connected with
wires.
 Energy transfer is due to Mutual Induction
 Wireless Charging Pad(WCP) ,Electric Brushes are
some examples.
 The capacitor and inductor forms the resonator. Charge
oscillates between inductor (as magnetic field) and
capacitor (as electric field.)
 This type of oscillation is called
resonance if the reactance's
of the inductor and capacitor
are equal
 Toughest technique under near-field energy transfer
techniques
 Air ionizes only when there is a high field
 Needed field is 2.11MV/m
 Natural example: Lightening
 Not feasible for practical implementation
Advantages: Disadvantages:
 No wire,  Distance constraint
 No e-waste  Field should be under
 Need for battery safety level
eliminated  High initial cost
 Efficient & Harmless  Tuning is difficult in RIC
 Transfers high power from one place to another. Two
places being in line of sight usually
 Steps:
 Electrical energy to microwave energy
 Capturing microwaves using rectenna
 Microwave energy to electrical energy
 AC is converted to DC first
 DC is converted to microwaves using magnetron
 Transmitted waves are received at rectenna which
rectifies, gives DC as the output
 DC is converted back to AC
 LASER is highly directional, coherent
 Not dispersed for very long
 But, gets attenuated when it propagates through
atmosphere
 Simple receiver
Photovoltaic cell
 Cost-efficient
 Advantages:
 Efficient , Easy
 Need for grid eliminated
 Low maintenance cost
 More effective when the
transmitting and receiving
points are along a line-of-
sight
 Can reach the places
which are remote
 Disadvantages:
 Radiate
 When LASERs are used,
Conversion is inefficient
Absorption loss is high
 When microwaves are
used,
Interference may arise
Near-field energy transfer :
 Electric automobile charging
 Static and moving
 Consumer electronics
 Industrial purposes
 Harsh environment
Far-field energy transfer :
 Solar Power Satellites
 Energy to remote areas
 Can broadcast energy globally (in future)
 Transmission without wires- a reality
 Efficient
 Low maintenance cost. But, high initial cost
 Better than conventional wired transfer
 Energy crisis can be decreased
 Low loss
 In near future, world will be completely wireless
