Abstract

Development of the mobile technologies brought in a wave of mobile devices and made wireless communications a way of life. But these mobile devices still were tethered to the power sources for their energy needs. The emerging Wireless Power Transmission (WPT) is changing all that, and setting mobile devices free from electrical cords. WPT has enabled the transmission of electrical energy from a power source to an electrical load without interconnecting wires. This emerging technologies update discusses various WPT technologies including electromagnetic induction and electromagnetic radiation. This ability to deliver power wirelessly to a remote device has given rise to a variety of ways in which our lives are impacted in a major way. Some technology solutions enabled by WPT are perpetual wireless powering of Wireless Sensor Networks, corrosion monitoring in concrete structures, capsule robots, and endoscopic micro-balls.
