Abstract

Although wireless power transfer systems suffer from splitting frequency conditions under strong coupling, this could create an opportunity for initiating other frequencies for power and data transfer. This paper introduces a model of an inductive transmitter containing a transmitter and many internal resonators to diversify the magnetic link to the receiver. Using the proposed architecture and solution, the efficiency and received power can be increased, and it also supports multiple frequency diversity.
