The main objective of this project is to develop a device for wireless power transfer. The concept of wireless power transfer was realized by Nikolas tesla. Wireless power transfer can make a remarkable change in the field of the electrical engineering which eliminates the use conventional copper cables and current carrying wires.
Based on this concept, the project is developed to transfer power within a small range. This project can be used for charging batteries those are physically not possible to be connected electrically such as pace makers (An electronic device that works in place of a defective heart valve) implanted in the body that runs on a battery.
The patient is required to be operated every year to replace the battery. This project is designed to charge a rechargeable battery wirelessly for the purpose. Since charging of the battery is not possible to be demonstrated, we are providing a DC fan that runs through wireless power.
This project is built upon using an electronic circuit which converts AC 230V 50Hz to AC 12V, High frequency. The output is fed to a tuned coil forming as primary of an air core transformer. The secondary coil develops a voltage of HF 12volt.
Thus the transfer of power is done by the primary(transmitter) to the secondary that is separated with a considerable distance(say 3cm). Therefore the transfer could be seen as the primary transmits and the secondary receives the power to run load.
Moreover this technique can be used in number of applications, like to charge a mobile phone, iPod, laptop battery, propeller clock wirelessly. And also this kind of charging provides a far lower risk of electrical shock as it would be galvanically isolated.

Design of Wireless Power Transfer System via Magnetic Resonant Coupling at 13.56MHz
Abstract: Power is a must to modern systems. Power transmission through wires is common. But not in every field can wires be used because of certain limitations. The implantable biomedical devices like pacemakers, cardiac defibrillators, and artificial hearts require power supply for long term operation. The required power is supplied by driveline cable or by battery. WPT greatly reduces the risk of infection by eliminating the driveline cable which otherwise needs to puncture the skin to provide power and also saves the valuable space inside a personâs body in case of battery powered. In such fields, what we need is wireless transmission. Wireless transmission is useful in cases where instantaneous or continuous energy transfer is needed, but interconnecting wires are inconvenient, hazardous, or impossible. In this paper, a simple design method of a wireless power transfer system using 13.56 MHz ISM band is proposed. The proposed wireless power transfer system consists of rectifier, oscillator, power amplifier, power coil, load coil and two intermediate coils as transmitter antenna and receiver antenna inserted between power coil and load coil.

Due to the ever-increasing power demand, the need of electricity and eco-friendly power in every nook and corner of the world, many reaserch topics have been devoted to deal with this problematic. This paper is taking part of the proposed solutions with the presentation of a novel 5.8 GHz rectenna system for wireless power transmission applications. In one hand, a miniaturized 5.8 GHz circular polarized patch antenna has been designed and simulated by using the Advanced Design System (ADS). In the other hand, a rectifier structure has been investigated and optimized by the use of the Harmonic Balance method available in ADS. The circuit is based on 5 HSMS2820 Schottky diodes implemented in a voltage multiplier topology and a load resistance of 1 KOhm. Both of the structures have been validated by simulation and experimental results and good agreement has been concluded.

Fuzzy based control of Transformer less Coupled inductor based DC-DC converterIJERA Editor
Â
Most of the industrial applications use any one of the basic DC-DC converter configurations namely buck,
boost, buckâboost, and Cuk converters. These converters are non-isolating converters. Buck-boost converters
use inductors for storing energy from the source and release the same to load or output. This results in high
stress across magnetic components. This drawback restricts usage of buck-boost converters to low power
applications. Flyback converters popularly have known as buck-boost converters uses transformers for
achieving wide range of step down and step up voltages. Coupled inductor based converters or tapped inductor
based converters are used for achieving wide input â wide output conversion ratios. Coherent transition between
step-down and step-up modes is achieved by a proper control scheme. This paper proposes fuzzy logic based
closed loop control scheme for control of converter switches. Theoretical derivations of control parameters with
their membership values, mamdani based rules for development of fuzzy rules and simulation results of a
coupled inductor based DC-DC converter using MATLAB / SIMULINK are concluded.
A NEW MODIFIED SYSTEM FOR EQUAL POWER DIVISION WITH LCC FOR WIRELESS APPLCATIONSijistjournal
Â
In this paper, a new modified system for equal power division is implemented with the help of rectangular micro strip patch antenna, Gysel power divider and leakage cancellation circuit. Todayâs world power division plays an important role in wireless application areas such as base stations, antenna arrays, handheld devices etc., Here micro strip patch antenna is implemented with FR4 as a substrate material due to its benefits such as low loss and low fabrication cost while the ground material is aluminium due to its conductivity. For a good system, the return loss should be highly desirable and insertion loss should be low. Our proposed system is designed with a combination of micro strip patch antenna, leakage cancellation circuit and Gysel power divider produces equal power division with low loss such as insertion loss is measured as -39.291dB, return loss as -16.11dB and leakage cancellation as 6dB which was designed and simulated in Agilent Advanced Design System software (2009).
Investigations on Capacitor Compensation Topologies Effects of Different Indu...IJPEDS-IAES
Â
This paper presents investigations on capacitor compensation topologies with
different inductive coupling links for loosely coupled inductive power
transfer (IPT) system. In general, the main constraint of the loosely coupled
IPT system is power losses due to the large leakage inductances. Therefore,
to overcome the aforementioned problem, in this work, capacitor
compensation is proposed to be used by adding an external capacitor to the
system. By using this approach, the resonant inductive coupling can be
achieved efficiently and hence the efficiency of the system is also increased
significantly. This paper analyzes the performance of two different
compensation topologies, which are primary series-secondary series (SS) and
primary series- secondary parallel (SP) topology. The performance of such
topologies is evaluated through the experimental results at 1MHz operating
frequency for different types of inductive coupling. From the results, SS
topology produces a high power transfer but SP topology gives better
efficiency.
Renewable Energy Based on Current Fed Switched Inverter for Smart Grid Applic...MangaiK4
Â
Abstract - Renewable energy is used in the current fed switched inverter for high power production. High voltage support, wide yield ranges of operation, shoot-through resistance are a portion of the desired properties of an inverter for a reliable, versatile and less ripple AC inversion. This paper proposes a single stage, high boost inverter with buck-boost capacity which has a few particular advantages over traditional voltage source inverters (VSI) like better EMI noise, wide input and output voltage range of operation, and so on. The proposed inverter is named as Current-Fed Switched Inverter (CFSI). A renewable energy based converter structure of CFSI has been created which supplies both AC and DC loads, at the same time, from a single DC supply which makes it reasonable for DC smart grid application. This paper proposes the operation and control of a CFSI based converter which directs the AC and DC conversion voltages at their reference. The advancement of the proposed converter from essential current fed DC/DC topology is explained. The closed loop controller is verified by using the MATLAB/ Simulink environment.
This paper deals with the design of filters and THD analysis of a low - frequency ac (20Hz) transmission system. The LFAC system is interfaced with the 50Hz main power grid with a cycloconverter. The wind power is collected in dc form,and is connected to the L FAC transmission line with a twelve pulse inverter. The waveforms at the sending end and receiving end of the transmission line are plotted.THD analysis of LFAC system is carried out. The circuit model of LFAC system is simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK.

12. Analysis of frequency splitting phenomena
â˘When the distance
between transmitter and
receiver changes, the
coupling coefficient (k)
also varies and the
resonant frequency
(13.56MHz) splits as
shown in figure 8.
Figure 8: Frequency splitting phenomena
⢠At remote distances, the efficiency peaks only at the resonant
12
frequency.
⢠Closer distance leads to frequency splitting.
⢠The shorter the transfer distance, more obvious the phenomena is.
International Conference on Technology and Innovation Management and IOE Graduate Conference, Oct 10-11, 2014
13. Frequency splitting & Cause Analysis
⢠At close distances, the input impedance at the original resonant
frequency point is characteristic of extremely large impedance
angle and relatively low amplitude.
⢠Large impedance angle causes very low transferred power, and
much is exchanged between the Power and the transmitter Coil.
⢠Small amplitude results in a large source current, thus increasing
the source internal resistance loss.
⢠Both these two factors reduce efficiency.
⢠While at below and above the original resonant frequency, the
input impedance is characteristic of extremely small impedance
angle and relatively high amplitude.
⢠Due to the opposite characteristics, efficiency peaks at these two
frequency points.
International Conference on Technology and Innovation Management and IOE Graduate Conference, Oct 10-11, 2014 13
14. Related Factors of Frequency splitting
⢠The related factors, i.e. the source internal
resistance (Rs), the mutual inductance between
the Power coil and the Transmitter coil (M12),
and the mutual inductance between the load coil
and the receiving coil (M34)[23].
⢠When the source internal resistance increases, the
input impedance is changed into small amplitude
and large impedance angle.
⢠This leads to Frequency splitting.
International Conference on Technology and Innovation Management and IOE Graduate Conference, Oct 10-11, 2014 14
15. Related Factors of Frequency splitting
Mutual Inductance of Source & Transmitter Coil
15
It can be seen from the figure 8
that decreasing the coupling
coefficient k23 between
transmitter & receiver coil i.e.
bringing the transmitter and
receiver closer keeping the k12
& k34 fixed,
Figure 9: Power transfer efficiency at
different coupling coefficient
efficiency of the system decreases and frequency splitting takes
place. When the coupling between power coil and transmitter coil
k12 increase from 0.1 to 0.2 i.e. bringing the power coil and
transmitter coil closer eliminates the frequency splitting
phenomena and the efficiency of the system increases.

16
It can be seen from the figure 10 that
decreasing the coupling coefficient k23
between transmitter & receiver coil i.e.
bringing the transmitter and receiver
closer keeping the k12 & k34 fixed,
efficiency of the system decreases and
frequency splitting takes place.

When the coupling between receiver coil and load coil k34 increase from 0.1 to

takes place.
On the other hand, the
change of 0.025 in coupling

26. Radiation and Safety Level
⢠Power transfer takes place due to magnetic induction,
so non-radiative.
⢠Moreover, Certain frequencies like 6.78MHz and
13.56MHz are designated by the ITU for industrial,
scientific and medical (ISM) RF applications
⢠At these frequencies, Special International Committee
on Radio Interference (CISPR) 11 places no limits on
RF emissions [7].

27. Conclusion
⢠From the observations and analyses done so
far in this thesis, it can be concluded that the
use of AWG 14 wire, spiral antenna and LCC
topology gives the best efficiency in the
Wireless Power Transfer Link.
⢠In addition to this, it has been observed that
GaN HEMT class E amplifier has better
performance than h bridge amplifier in the
Wireless Power Transfer Link

28. Future Work
⢠The prototype of wireless power transfer link with
class E amplifier, spiral antenna using AWG 14
wire in LCC topology can be developed to verify
the theory and to discuss the realizable
performance of implemented WPT link using
vector network analyzer (VNA).
