Solar Energy based Mobile Charger Using Inductive Coupling Transmission

Abstract

In almost all the countries people use mobile phones as a necessary tool for communication. Now a day’s the number of mobiles is more than mobile phone users as technology becomes advanced, very convenient to use, and also the low-cost device. But people can't travel long distances with their mobile phones as the average battery life of the mobile is less than 10 hours. So, we designed a wireless solar mobile charger that uses solar energy to provide sufficient electricity to charge mobile phones. The aim of using a wireless solar mobile charger is that we are using a renewable energy source so that we generate electricity free of cost, and it will give a better solution to people who travel long distances with their mobile phones. For wireless charging principle of inductive coupling is used to transfer power between transmitter and receiver wirelessly. As solar energy is free and abundantly available the proposed device will provide the best solution for outdoor mobile phone charging. It is portable and doesn’t reαuire electric supply as it uses solar energy from the solar panel. Its main advantage is to the trekkers, farmers, travelers, and people who are roaming for personal or industrial use. As this charger is not useful for smartphones it will use in many industries that are not using old mobile phones as compared to smartphones in their industries.
