The document discusses wireless power transfer, beginning with an introduction to the concept of transmitting electrical energy without wires. It provides a brief history, noting Nikola Tesla's pioneering work in the late 19th century. The basic principle of near-field inductive coupling through magnetic fields is explained. Details are then given about the group's experimental setup, including components like a high frequency transformer, rectifier, and coils. The working principle is described as using electromagnetic induction to transfer power from a primary coil to a secondary coil. Advantages like simple design and low cost are mentioned, alongside disadvantages such as high power loss over distance. Applications that have been proposed or prototyped are also outlined.
