INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction:
Automation has created a bigger hype in the electronics. The major reason for this
type is automation provides greater advantages like accuracy, energy conversation,
reliability and more over the automated systems do not require any human attention. Any
one of the requirements stated above demands for the design of an automated device.
The project consists of two self resonating copper coils of same resonating frequency
of about 100KHZ. One copper wire is connected to the power source (transmitter), while the
other copper wire is connected to the device (Receiver).The electric power from the power
source causes the copper coil connected to it to start oscillating at a particular (KHz)
frequency. Subsequently, the space around the copper coil gets filled with nonmagnetic
radiations. This generated magnetic field further transfers the power to the other copper coil
connected to the receiver. Since this coil is also of the same frequency, it starts oscillating at
the same frequency as the first coil. This is known as 'coupled resonance' and is the principle
of Tesla.
This project results in a device where the electricity is transmitted wirelessly through
copper coils for a distance range of about 3cm. The system uses pulse generator of 100 KHZ
at the transmitter circuit. Therefore, the current flows from the coil on the transmitter side to
the receiver side coil wirelessly connected LED.
In this project makes a use of Mosfet driver circuit, a pair of copper coils, filter, step
down transformer and a load.

CHAPTER 2
This concept is actually not a new concept. This whole idea was developed by Nicolas
Tesla in 1893, where he developed a system of illuminating vacuum bulbs using wireless
transmission techniques.
This idea was developed by William C Brown. The whole idea involves converting
the AC power to RF power and transmitting it through space and again reconverting it to AC
power at the receiver. In this system, power is generated using microwave power sources
like klystron, and this generated power is given to the transmitting antenna via the waveguide
(which protects the microwave power from reflected power) and the tuner (which matches
the impedance of the microwave source with that of the antenna)
The receiving section consists of the receiving antenna which receives the microwave
power and the Impedance matching and filter circuit which matches the output impedance of
the signal with that of the rectifying unit. This receiving antenna along with the rectifying
unit is known as the Rectenna. The antenna used can be a dipole or a Yagi-Uda Antenna. The
receiver unit also consists of the rectifier section consisting of Schottky diodes which is used
to convert the microwave signal to DC signal. This transmission system uses frequencies in
the range of 2GHz to 6GHz.
light is received by the photovoltaic cells, which convert the light to electrical signals. It
generally uses optical fiber cables for transmission. Like in the basic solar power system, the
receiver used in LASER based transmission is the array of photovoltaic cells or solar panels
which can convert the incoherent monochromatic light into electricity.
One of the most advanced wireless power transfer systems is based on transferring
solar power using a microwave or LASER beam. The satellite is stationed in the
geostationary orbit and consists of photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight into an electric
current which is used to power a Microwave generator and accordingly generate microwave
power. This Microwave power is transmitted using RF communication and received at the
base station using a Rectenna, which is a combination of an antenna and a rectifier and is
converted back to electricity or required AC or DC power. The satellite can transmit up to
10MW of RF power.

3.2 Transformation:
Transformer:
A transformer is a device that transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another
through inductively coupled conductors without changing its frequency. A varying current in
the first or primary winding creates a varying magnetic flux in the transformer's core, and
thus a varying magnetic field through the secondary winding. This varying magnetic
field induces a varying electromotive force (EMF) or "voltage" in the secondary winding.
This effect is called mutual induction.
If a load is connected to the secondary, an electric current will flow in the secondary
winding and electrical energy will be transferred from the primary circuit through the
transformer to the load. This field is made up from lines of force and has the same shape as a
bar magnet.
If the current is increased, the lines of force move outwards from the coil. If the
current is reduced, the lines of force move inwards.
If another coil is placed adjacent to the first coil then, as the field moves out or in, the
moving lines of force will "cut" the turns of the second coil. As it does this, a voltage is
induced in the second coil. With the 50 Hz AC mains supply, this will happen 50 times a
second. This is called MUTUAL INDUCTION and forms the basis of the transformer.
The input coil is called the PRIMARY WINDING; the output coil is the
SECONDARY WINDING. Fig: 3.3.4 shows step-down transformer.
For example, if the secondary has half the primary turns; the secondary will have
half the primary voltage.
Another example is if the primary has 5000 turns and the secondary has 500 turns,
then the turn’s ratio is 10:1.
If the primary voltage is 240 volts then the secondary voltage will be x 10 smaller =
24 volts. Assuming a perfect transformer, the power provided by the primary must equal the
power taken by a load on the secondary. If a 24-watt lamp is connected across a 24 volt
secondary, then the primary must supply 24 watts.
Note that the transformer only works on AC, which has a constantly changing current
and moving field. DC has a steady current and therefore a steady field and there would be no
induction.
Some transformers have an electrostatic screen between primary and secondary. This
is to prevent some types of interference being fed from the equipment down into the mains
supply, or in the other direction. Transformers are sometimes used for IMPEDANCE
MATCHING.
Incase of step down transformer, Primary winding induces more flux than the
secondary winding, and secondary winding is having less number of turns because of that it
accepts less number of flux, and releases less amount of voltage.
3.3 RECTIFICATION:
Rectifiers:
A device that it can perform the opposite function (converting DC to AC) is known as
an inverter.
When only one diode is used to rectify AC (by blocking the negative or positive
portion of the waveform), the difference between the term diode and the term rectifier is
merely one of usage, i.e., the term rectifier describes a diode that is being used to convert AC
to DC. Almost all rectifiers comprise a number of diodes in a specific arrangement for more
efficiently converting AC to DC than is possible with only one diode. Before the
development of silicon semiconductor rectifiers, vacuum tube diodes and copper (I) oxide or
selenium rectifier stacks were used.
The Bridge rectifier circuit is shown in fig: 3.3.7, which converts an ac voltage to dc
voltage using both half cycles of the input ac voltage. The Bridge rectifier circuit is shown in
the figure. The circuit has four diodes connected to form a bridge. The ac input voltage is
applied to the diagonally opposite ends of the bridge. The load resistance is connected
between the other two ends of the bridge.
For the positive half cycle of the input ac voltage, diodes D1 and D3 conduct,
whereas diodes D2 and D4 remain in the OFF state. The conducting diodes will be in series
with the load resistance RL and hence the load current flows through RL.
For the negative half cycle of the input ac voltage, diodes D2 and D4 conduct
whereas, D1 and D3 remain OFF. The conducting diodes D2 and D4 will be in series with the
load resistance RL and hence the current flows through RL in the same direction as in the
previous half cycle. Thus a bi-directional wave is converted into a unidirectional wave.

The process of converting a pulsating direct current to a pure direct current using

Introduction to Capacitors:
Units of Capacitance:
Operation of Capacitor:
First, let's consider the case of a "coupling capacitor" where the capacitor is used to
connect a signal from one part of a circuit to another but without allowing any direct current
to flow.
So a coupling capacitor allows "alternating current" to pass through because the ball
valve doesn't get a chance to close as the waves go up and down. However, a steady current
quickly fills the tank so that all flow stops.
3.5 Resistors:
V = IR
Resistors are elements of electrical networks and electronic circuits and are ubiquitous
in most electronic equipment. Practical resistors can be made of various compounds and
films, as well as resistance wire (wire made of a high-resistivity alloy, such as
nickel/chrome).
The primary characteristics of a resistor are the resistance, the tolerance, maximum
working voltage and the power rating. Other characteristics include temperature coefficient,
noise, and inductance. Less well-known is critical resistance, the value below which power
dissipation limits the maximum permitted current flow, and above which the limit is applied
voltage. Critical resistance is determined by the design, materials and dimensions of the
resistor.
Resistors can be made to control the flow of current, to work as Voltage dividers, to
dissipate power and it can shape electrical waves when used in combination of other
components. Basic unit is ohms.
Theory of operation:
Ohm's law:
V = IR
Ohm's law states that the voltage (V) across a resistor is proportional to the
current (I) through it where the constant of proportionality is the resistance (R).
Power dissipation:
The power dissipated by a resistor (or the equivalent resistance of a resistor network)
is calculated using the following:
3.6 LED:
Working:
The structure of the LED light is completely different than that of the light bulb.
Amazingly, the LED has a simple and strong structure. The light-emitting semiconductor
material is what determines the LED's color. The LED is based on the semiconductor diode.
When a diode is forward biased (switched on), electrons are able to recombine
with holes within the device, releasing energy in the form of photons. This effect is called
electroluminescence and the color of the light (corresponding to the energy of the photon) is
determined by the energy gap of the semiconductor. An LED is usually small in area (less
than 1 mm2), and integrated optical components are used to shape its radiation pattern and
assist in reflection. LED’s present many advantages over incandescent light sources including
lower energy consumption, longer lifetime, improved robustness, smaller size, faster
switching, and greater durability and reliability. However, they are relatively expensive and
require more precise current and heat management than traditional light sources. Current
LED products for general lighting are more expensive to buy than fluorescent lamp sources
of comparable output. They also enjoy use in applications as diverse as replacements for
traditional light sources in automotive lighting (particularly indicators) and in traffic signals.
The compact size of LED’s has allowed new text and video displays and sensors to be
developed, while their high switching rates are useful in advanced communications
technology. The electrical symbol and polarities of led are shown in fig: 3.4.3.
• Visual signal application where the light goes more or less directly from the LED to
the human eye, to convey a message or meaning.
• Illumination where LED light is reflected from object to give visual response of these
objects.
• Generate light for measuring and interacting with processes that do not involve the
human visual system.
3.7 MOSFET :
The 'metal' in the name MOSFET is now often a misnomer because the previously
metal gate material is now often a layer of polysilicon (polycrystalline silicon). Aluminium
had been the gate material until the mid 1970s, when polysilicon became dominant, due to its
capability to form self-aligned gates. Metallic gates are regaining popularity, since it is
difficult to increase the speed of operation of transistors without metal gates.
Likewise, the 'oxide' in the name can be a misnomer, as different dielectric materials
are used with the aim of obtaining strong channels with applied smaller voltages.
A variety of symbols are used for the MOSFET. The basic design is generally a line
for the channel with the source and drain leaving it at right angles and then bending back at
right angles into the same direction as the channel. Sometimes three line segments are used
for enhancement mode and a solid line for depletion mode. Another line is drawn parallel to
the channel for the gate.
The bulk connection, if shown, is shown connected to the back of the channel with an
arrow indicating PMOS or NMOS. Arrows always point from P to N, so an NMOS (N-
channel in P-well or P-substrate) has the arrow pointing in (from the bulk to the channel). If
the bulk is connected to the source (as is generally the case with discrete devices) it is
sometimes angled to meet up with the source leaving the transistor. If the bulk is not shown
(as is often the case in IC design as they are generally common bulk) an inversion symbol is
sometimes used to indicate PMOS, alternatively an arrow on the source may be used in the
same way as for bipolar transistors (out for nMOS, in for pMOS).
For the symbols in which the bulk, or body, terminal is shown, it is here shown
internally connected to the source. This is a typical configuration, but by no means the only
important configuration. In general, the MOSFET is a four-terminal device, and in integrated
circuits many of the MOSFETs share a body connection, not necessarily connected to the
source terminals of all the transistors.

P-channel
N-channel
Metal–oxide–semiconductor structure
This structure with p-type body is the basis of the n-type MOSFET, which requires
the addition of an n-type source and drain regions.
Channel formation in nMOS MOSFET: Top panels: An applied gate voltage bends bands,
depleting holes from surface (left). The charge inducing the bending is balanced by a layer of negative
acceptor-ion charge (right). Bottom panel: A larger applied voltage further depletes holes but
conduction band lowers enough in energy to populate a conducting channel.
If the MOSFET is an n-channel or nMOS FET, then the source and drain are 'n+'
regions and the body is a 'p' region. If the MOSFET is a p-channel or pMOS FET, then the
source and drain are 'p+' regions and the body is a 'n' region. The source is so named because
it is the source of the charge carriers (electrons for n-channel, holes for p-channel) that flow
through the channel; similarly, the drain is where the charge carriers leave the channel.
The occupancy of the energy bands in a semiconductor is set by the position of the
Fermi level relative to the semiconductor energy-band edges. As described above, and shown
in the figure, with sufficient gate voltage, the valence band edge is driven far from the Fermi
level, and holes from the body are driven away from the gate.
At larger gate bias still, near the semiconductor surface the conduction band edge is
brought close to the Fermi level, populating the surface with electrons in an inversion layer or
n-channel at the interface between the p region and the oxide. This conducting channel
extends between the source and the drain, and current is conducted through it when a voltage
is applied between the two electrodes. Increasing the voltage on the gate leads to a higher
electron density in the inversion layer and therefore increases the current flow between the
source and drain.
For gate voltages below the threshold value, the channel is lightly populated, and only
a very small sub threshold leakage current can flow between the source and the drain.
The device may comprise Silicon on Insulator (SOI) device in which a buried oxide
(BOX) is formed below a thin semiconductor layer. If the channel region between the gate
dielectric and a BOX region is very thin, the very thin channel region is referred to as an ultra
thin channel (UTC) region with the source and drain regions formed on either side thereof in
and/or above the thin semiconductor layer. Alternatively, the device may comprise a
semiconductor on insulator (SEMOI) device in which semiconductors other than silicon are
employed. Many alternative semiconductor materials may be employed.
When the source and drain regions are formed above the channel in whole or in part,
they are referred to as raised source/drain (RSD) regions
Modes of operation
Example application of an N-Channel MOSFET When the switch is pushed the LED
lights up Ohmic contact to body to ensure no body bias; top left: sub threshold, top right:
Ohmic mode, bottom left: Active mode at onset of pinch-off, bottom right: Active mode well
into pinch-off – channel length modulation evident.
The operation of a MOSFET can be separated into three different modes, depending
on the voltages at the terminals. In the following discussion, a simplified algebraic model is
used. Modern MOSFET characteristics are more complex than the algebraic model presented
here.
In weak inversion the current varies exponentially with as given approximately by:
With = capacitance of the depletion layer and = capacitance of the oxide layer. In a
long-channel device, there is no drain voltage dependence of the current once ,
but as channel length is reduced drain-induced barrier lowering introduces drain voltage
dependence that depends in a complex way upon the device geometry (for example, the
channel doping, the junction doping and so on). Frequently, threshold voltage Vth for this
mode is defined as the gate voltage at which a selected value of current ID0 occurs, threshold
voltage Vth for this mode is defined as the gate voltage at which a selected value of current
ID0 occurs for example, ID0 = 1 μA, which may not be the same Vth-value used in the
equations for the following modes.
Some micro power analog circuits are designed to take advantage of sub threshold
conduction.[9][10][11] By working in the weak-inversion region, the MOSFETs in these circuits
deliver the highest possible transconductance-to-current ratio, namely:
The sub threshold I–V curve depends exponentially upon threshold voltage,
introducing a strong dependence on any manufacturing variation that affects threshold
voltage; for example: variations in oxide thickness, junction depth, or body doping that
change the degree of drain-induced barrier lowering. The resulting sensitivity to fabrication
variations complicates optimization for leakage and performance.
Cross section of a MOSFET operating in the linear (Ohmic) region; strong inversion
region present even near drain
where is the charge-carrier effective mobility, is the gate width, is the gate
length and is the gate oxide capacitance per unit area. The transition from the exponential
sub threshold region to the triode region is not as sharp as the equations suggest.
The switch is turned on, and a channel has been created, which allows current to flow
between the drain and source. Since the drain voltage is higher than the gate voltage, the
electrons spread out, and conduction is not through a narrow channel but through a broader,
two- or three-dimensional current distribution extending away from the interface and deeper
in the substrate. The onset of this region is also known as pinch-off to indicate the lack of
channel region near the drain. The drain current is now weakly dependent upon drain voltage
and controlled primarily by the gate–source voltage, and modeled approximately as:
where the combination Vov = VGS – Vth is called the overdrive voltage,[19] and where
VDSsat = VGS – Vth (which Sedra neglects) accounts for a small discontinuity in which
would otherwise appear at the transition between the triode and saturation regions.
Another key design parameter is the MOSFET output resistance rout given by:
If λ is taken as zero, an infinite output resistance of the device results that leads to unrealistic
circuit predictions, particularly in analog circuits.
As the channel length becomes very short, these equations become quite inaccurate. New
physical effects arise.
Body effect
For example, carrier transport in the active mode may become limited by velocity
saturation. When velocity saturation dominates, the saturation drain current is more nearly
linear than quadratic in VGS. At even shorter lengths, carriers transport with near zero
scattering, known as quasi-ballistic transport. In addition, the output current is affected by
drain-induced barrier lowering of the threshold voltage VSB splits Fermi levels Fn for
electrons and Fp for holes, requiring larger VGB to populate the conduction band in an nMOS
MOSFET The occupancy of the energy bands in a semiconductor is set by the position of the
Fermi level relative to the semiconductor energy-band edges.
is to increase the gate voltage necessary to establish the channel, as seen in the figure. This
change in channel strength by application of reverse bias is called the body effect.
Simply put, using an nMOS example, the gate-to-body bias VGB positions the
conduction-band energy levels, while the source-to-body bias VSB positions the electron
Fermi level near the interface, deciding occupancy of these levels near the interface, and
hence the strength of the inversion layer or channel.
The body effect upon the channel can be described using a modification of the
threshold voltage, approximated by the following equation:
where VTB is the threshold voltage with substrate bias present, and VT0 is the zero-VSB
value of threshold voltage, is the body effect parameter, and 2φB is the approximate
potential drop between surface and bulk across the depletion layer when VSB = 0 and gate
bias is sufficient to insure that a channel is present.[20] As this equation shows, a reverse bias
VSB > 0 causes an increase in threshold voltage VTB and therefore demands a larger gate
voltage before the channel populates.
The body can be operated as a second gate, and is sometimes referred to as the "back
gate"; the body effect is sometimes called the "back-gate effect".
For example, carrier transport in the active mode may become limited by velocity
saturation. When velocity saturation dominates, the saturation drain current is more nearly
linear than quadratic in VGS.
At even shorter lengths, carriers transport with near zero scattering, known as quasi-
ballistic transport. In addition, the output current is affected by drain-induced barrier lowering
of the threshold voltage VSB splits Fermi levels Fn for electrons and Fp for holes, requiring
larger VGB to populate the conduction band in an nMOS MOSFET The occupancy of the
energy bands in a semiconductor is set by the position of the Fermi level relative to the
semiconductor energy-band edges.
A coil tap is a wiring feature found on some electrical transformers, inductors and coil
pickups, all of which are sets of wire coils. The coil tap(s) are points in a wire coil where a
conductive patch has been exposed (usually on a loop of wire that extends out of the main
coil body). As self induction is larger for larger coil diameter the current in a thick wire tries
to flow on the inside. The ideal use of copper is achieved by foils. Sometimes this means that
a spiral is a better alternative. Multilayer coils have the problem of interlayer capacitance, so
when multiple layers are needed the shape needs to be radically changed to a short coil with
many layers so that the voltage between consecutive layers is smaller.
A wireless power transmitter emits a magnetic field with the help of the coil with the
same frequency emitted by wireless power receiver. In order for optimal impedance, cable
reels used on both sides.
CHAPTER 4
PROJECT WORKING
The above schematic diagram of Wireless Power transmission explains the interfacing
section of each component.
2) T5336 from Elcoteq - Seems like Mosfet Driver in SOIC8 package to drive coils upto 60V
peaks on sinewave. Same can be designed with discrete mosfets in H-Bridge.
Receiver Board Circuit - Seems like a MC34063 type design for power regulation but more
efficient.
There are various types of wireless power transmission systems available in the
market but the main concept is almost the same for all. We have our utility power supply is
AC or alternating current but we required Direct Current or DC power supply for charging.
So let's know how the system works.
Basically, the power is transmitted from the transmitter coil to the receiver coil in the
principle of mutual inductance. You can refer to the transmitter coil as the primary coil of the
transformer and the receiver coil as the secondary coil of the transformer. So there is no
electrical connection between them but power can be transmitted easily. So you can see the
receiver circuit is totally isolated from the transmitter circuit.
The output of the receiver coil is fed to the rectifier circuit so the AC power supply
will be converted to the DC power supply. After the output DC supply from the rectifier
circuit is provided to the filter circuit to remove the ripples from the DC. The filtered DC
supply is fed to the regulator circuit. The regulator circuit always provides a constant voltage
across the load even when the input voltage changes or load current varies.Also, you can see
in both primary and secondary coils the capacitance compensation circuit is connected. The
function of those capacitance compensation circuits is to maintain the capacitance and
eliminate the noises.

be eliminated by using Zigbee technology, which increases the operating distances also gives
the feedback through LED indicators. GSM module also can be used to get the feedback of
the electrical devices by sending the SMS in a particular specified format.
