Abstract

A three-coil wireless charging system is proposed for full metal-cover smartphone applications. Considering the space limitation and other antennas in the smartphone, the receiver coil embedded in the smartphone is designed to be miniaturized as 16 mm × 65 mm. By integrating a series capacitance at the end of the 2-mm width narrow horizontal slot loading on the metal cover, the metal cover is converted to a relay coil of the three-coil system and wireless power transfer (WPT) through the metal cover is thus achieved. A prototype of the proposed three-coil system has been built and WPT through metal cover has been validated via experiment. The experimental results show that the prototype achieves 5 W output power with 71% coil-to-coil efficiency.
