 WHAT IS WPT

• The WPT is not a new

technology.In 1980 it was
demonstrated by Nikola Tesla.
• The transmission of energy from
one place to another without
using wires.
• The WPT is basically working with the Mutual Induction.

• WPT’s are classified into two types.

1. Near – Field Power Transmission
2. Far – field Power Transmission
 TYPES OF WPT & TECHNOLOGIES
• NEAR – FIELD TECHNIQUE.
• INDUCTIVE COUPLING.
• RESONANT INDUCTIVE COUPLING
• AIR IONIZATION.
• FAR – FIELD TECHNIQUES
• MICRO POWER TRANSMISSION (MPT)
• LASER POWER TRANSMISSION
 INDUCTIVE COUPLING
• PRIMARY AND SECONDARY COILS ARE NOT
CONNECTED WIRES
• THE ENERGY TRANSFER DUE TO MUTUAL INDUCTION
• TRANSFORMER, WIRELESS CHARGING PAD, ELECTRIC
BRUSHES ARE SOME EXAMPLES.
RESONANCE INDUCTIVE COUPLING
(RIC)
• COMBINATION OF INDUCTIVE COUPLING AND
RESONANCE
• RESONANCE MAKE TWO OBJECTS CONTRACT VERY
STRONGLY.
• INDUCTANCE INDUCE CURRENT.
 RIC VS INDUCTIVE COUPLING
• RIC IS HIGH EFFICIENT.
• RIC HAS MUCH GREATER RANGE THAN INDUCTIVE
COUPLING
• DEVICES USING RIC TECHNIQUE WAS HIGHLY PORTABLE
• RIC CAN BE ONE –TO MANY. BUT USUALLY INDUCTIVE
COUPLING IS ONE – TO – ONE.
 AIR IONIZATION
• TOUGHEST TECHNIQUE UNDER NEAR FIELD ENERGY
TRANSFER TECHNIQUE.
• AIR IONIZE ONLY WHEN THERE IS HIGH FIELD.
• NATURAL EXAMPLE IS LIGHTENING
 ADVANTAGES OF NEAR FIELD
TECHNIQUE
• NO WIRE
• NO E – WASTE
• NEED FOR BATTERY IS ELIMINATED
• EFFICIENT ENERGY TRANSFER USING RIC
• HARMLESS,IF FIELD STRENGTH UNDER SAFETY LEVELS
• MAINTENANCE COST IS LESS
 DIS ADVANTAGE
• DISTANCE CONSTRAINT
• FIELD STRENGTH HAVE TO BE UNDER SAFETY LEVELS
• INITIAL COST IS HIGH
• IN RIC TUNING IS DIFFICULT
• HIGH FREQUENCY SIGNAL MUST BE THE SUPPLY
• AIR IONIZATION TECHNIQUE IS NOT FEASIBLE
 MICROWAVE POWER TRANSFER
(MPT)
• TRANSFER HIGH POWER FROM ONE PLACE TO
ANOTHER.TWO PLACES BEING IN LINE OF SIGHT
ENERGY.
• STEPS :
• AC CAN NOT BE CONVERTED TO MICROWAVE ENERGY.
• AC IS CONVERTED TO MICROWAVE USING MAGNETRON.
• TRANSMITTED WAVES ARE RECEIVED AT
RECTANNA WHICH RECTIFIES GIVES DC AS
THE OUTPUT.

• DC IS CONVERTED BACK TO AC.

 LASER TRANSMISSION
• LASER IS HIGHLY DIRECTIONAL , COHERENT
• NOT DISPRESED FOR VERY LONG.
• BUT GET ATTENUATED WHICH IT PROPAGATES THROUGH
ATMOSPHERE.
• SIMPLE RECEIVER
• COST EFFICIENT.
 LASER VS MPT
• WHEN LASER IS USED , THE ANTENNA SIZES CAN BE MUCH
SMALLER
• MICROWAVES CAN FACE INTERFERENCE (TWO FREQUENCIES
CAN BE USED FOR WPT ARE 2.45 GHZ AND 5.4 GHZ)
• LASER HAS ATTENUATION LOSS ALSO IT GETS DIFFRACTED BY
ATMOSPHERIC PARTICLE EASILY.
 ADVANTAGES OF FAR-FIELD
ENERGY TRANSFER
• EFFICIENT
• EASY
• LOW MAINTENANCE COST
• MORE EFFECTIVE WHEN THE TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING
POINTS ARE ALONG A LINE OF SIGHT
• CAN REACH THE PLACES WHICH ARE REMOTE
 DIS ADVANTAGES
• RADIATIVE
• NEEDS LINE OF SIGHT
• INITIAL COST IS HIGH
• WHEN LASERS ARE USED
• CONVERSION IS INEFFICIENT
• ABSORPTION LOSS IS HIGH
• WHEN MICROWAVES ARE USED
• INTERFERENCE MAY ARISE
 APPLICATION
• NEAR – FIELD ENERGY TRANSFER
• ELECTRIC AUTOMOBILE CHARGING
• CONSUMER ELECTRONICS
• INDUSTRIAL PURPOSES
• FAR – FIELD ENERGY TRANSFER
• SOLAR POWER SATELLITE
• ENERGY TO REMOTE AREAS
• CAN BROADCAST ENERGY GLOBALLY(FUTURE)
