What is WPT?
 The transmission of 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
3

Why not wires?
 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%
4

Why WPT?
 Reliable
 Efficient
 Fast
 Low maintenance cost
 Can be used for short-range or
long-range.

History
 Nikola Tesla work in late 1890s
 Pioneer of induction techniques
 His vision for “World Wireless System”
 The 187 feet tall tower to broadcast
energy
 All people can have access to free
energy
 Due to shortage of funds, tower did not
operate
6

History (contd…)
 Tesla was able to transfer energy from
one coil to another coil
 He managed to light 200 lamps from a
distance of 40km
 The idea of Tesla is taken in to
research after 100 years by a team led
by Marin Soljačić from MIT. The
project is named as „WiTricity‟.

Energy Coupling
 The transfer of energy
◦ Magnetic coupling
◦ Inductive coupling
 Simplest Wireless Energy coupling is
a transformer
8

Types and Technologies of
WPT
 Near-field techniques
Inductive Coupling
Resonant Inductive Coupling
Air Ionization
 Far-field techniques
Microwave Power Transmission (MPT)
LASER power transmission
9

Inductive coupling
 Primary and secondary coils are not
connected with wires.
 Energy transfer is due to Mutual
Induction
10

Resonance Inductive
Coupling(RIC)
 Combination of inductive coupling and
resonance
 Resonance makes two objects interact
very strongly
 Inductance induces current
11

WiTricity
 Based on RIC
 Led by MIT‟s Marin Soljačić
 Energy transfer wirelessly for a
distance just more than 2m.
 Coils were in helical shape
 No capacitor was used
 Efficiency achieved was around 40%
13

Advantages of near-field
techniques
 No wires
 No e-waste
 Need for battery is
eliminated
 Efficient energy
transfer using RIC
 Harmless, if field
strengths under
safety levels
 Maintenance cost
is less
15

Disadvantages
 Distance constraint
 Field strengths have to be under
safety levels
 Initial cost is high
 In RIC, tuning is difficult
 High frequency signals must be the
supply
 Air ionization technique is not feasible
16

Far-field energy transfer
Radiative
Needs line-of-sight
LASER or microwave
Aims at high power transfer
Tesla‟s tower was built for this
17

Microwave Power
Transfer(MPT)
 Transfers high power from one place
to another. Two places being in line of
sight usually
 Steps:
◦ Electrical energy to microwave energy
◦ Capturing microwaves using rectenna
◦ Microwave energy to electrical energy
18

Solar Power Satellites (SPS)
 To provide energy to earth‟s
increasing energy need
 To efficiently make use of
renewable energy i.e., solar energy
 SPS are placed in geostationary
orbits
19

Advantages of far-field energy
transfer
 Efficient
 Easy
 Need for grids, substations etc are
eliminated
 Low maintenance cost
 More effective when the transmitting
and receiving points are along a line-
of-sight
 Can reach the places which are
remote 20

Disadvantages of far-field energy
transfer
 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
◦ FRIED BIRD effect
21

Applications
 Near-field energy transfer
◦ Electric automobile charging
 Static and moving
◦ Consumer electronics
◦ Industrial purposes
 Harsh environment
 Far-field energy transfer
◦ Solar Power Satellites
◦ Energy to remote areas
◦ Can broadcast energy globally (in future)
22

Conclusion
 Transmission without wires- a reality
 Efficient
 Low maintenance cost. But, high initial cost
 Better than conventional wired transfer
 Energy crisis can be decreased
 Low loss
 In near future, world will be completely
wireless
