Abstract

Between the WPT research of Tesla in late 19th century and mid 1980s, although research in WPT was still active in medical implants, commercial applications of WPT was not wide spread. Tesla pointed out that WPT could take place through magnetic coupling at high frequency and under resonance conditions. To maintain high energy efficiency, WPT requires (i) windings with low resistance at high frequency operation and (ii) a high-frequency power source.
