Abstract
In this paper, a rigorous procedure for the circuit-level analysis and design of entire systems, developed to provide power wirelessly, is presented. A unified theoretical approach is first introduced, based on a two-port-equivalent circuit representation, to describe the wireless power transfer link when the transmitter and the receiver are either in the near-field or in the far-field region reciprocally. This approach allows one to compute in a straightforward manner the system figure of merit, namely the power transfer efficiency. Specific guidelines for the two configurations are then intensively discussed together with the adopted software tools based on the combination of full-wave analysis and nonlinear harmonic balance techniques. Several practical examples based on this design procedure are presented, demonstrating predicted and experimental behavior of unconventional devices for both near-field and far-field power transfer usage.
