INTRODUCTION
The transmissionof energy from one place to another without using wires
Conventional energy transfer is using wires
But, the wireless transmission is made possible by using various technologies
As per studies, most electrical energy transfer is through wires. Most of the
energy loss is during transmission
On an average, more than 30%
In India, it exceeds 40%

Resonance Inductive Coupling(RIC):
The capacitor and inductor forms the resonator. Charge oscillates between
inductor (as magnetic field) and capacitor (as electric field)
This type of oscillation is called resonance if the reactance's of the
inductor and capacitor are equal

OUR PROJECT
WIRELESS TRANSMISSION
Wirelesspower transmission involves transferring
electrical energy without wires using methods like
electromagnetic induction, magnetic resonance, RF
transmission, and laser beams. It's applied in
consumer electronics, electric vehicles, medical
devices, and industrial automation, offering
convenience and safety but facing challenges in
efficiency, range, cost, and interference. Here I have
created a wireless transmission project using two
mutual induction type coils, a 27K resistor, an NPN-
2N2222A type transistor, a 3amp LED light and a
9volt battery.

TRANSISTOR:
Emitter: This isthe region that releases or "emits" charge carriers (electrons or holes) into the
base. In an NPN transistor, the emitter is doped with an excess of electrons, while in a PNP
transistor, it has an excess of holes. (Forward Bias)
Base: This is the middle region, thin and lightly doped, which controls the flow of charge
carriers between the emitter and collector. It's the "gatekeeper" for the current flow in the
transistor. A small current or voltage applied to the base can control a larger current flowing
from the collector to the emitter.
Collector: This is the region that collects the charge carriers from the base. It's designed to
handle the majority of the current flowing through the transistor and is usually larger
than the emitter. (Reverse Bias)

WORKING PRINCIPLE OFWIRELESS TRANSMISSION:
Wireless transmission works by converting electrical energy into electromagnetic
waves, which then travel through the air to a receiver that converts the waves
back into usable electricity, essentially transferring power without the need for
physical wires; this principle is primarily based on electromagnetic induction,
where a changing magnetic field induces a current in a nearby conductor, like a
coil of wire, allowing for energy transfer between two coils positioned close
together.
Electromagnetic fields:
The core principle involves creating a time-varying electromagnetic field using a
transmitter coil that generates a magnetic field when current flows through it.
Receiver coil:
A nearby receiver coil, properly aligned with the transmitter coil, picks up the
magnetic field and induces a current within it, allowing for power transfer.
Page No:23
23.
Inductive coupling:
Thisis the most common method where the transmitter and receiver coils are
closely coupled to efficiently transfer energy.
Resonant coupling:
To enhance efficiency over larger distances, resonant coupling can be used
where both transmitter and receiver coils are tuned to resonate at the same
frequency, allowing for better energy transfer even when not perfectly
aligned.

Conclusion:
Transmission withoutwires- a reality

But, high initial cost Better than conventional wired transfer
Energy crisis can be decreased Low loss
