Abstract

Long-range wireless power transmission technology goes beyond mere cell phones and small appliances, and is the core technology of 4'th industrial revolution such as robot, electric car, and IoT sensor network. In this paper, we will explore the evolution of long-range wireless power transmission technologies that have already become commercially available, with rapid advances in technology, beyond the traditional short-range technology that has become technologically common. Through this, it is intended to check the domestic research level and progress by identifying core technologies and technical challenge.

장거리 무선전력전송 기술은 단순한 핸드폰 및 소형가전을 넘어서, 4차 산업혁명의 핵심기술로 자리 잡은 드론, 로봇, 전기자동차, IoT 센서 네트워크 등에 폭넓게 적용될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이미 기술적으로 보편화된 기존의 근거리 무선전력전송 기술을 벗어나, 급속한 기술발전으로 통하여 상용화 단계에 이른 장거리 무선전력전송 기술의 발전방향을 살펴보고자 한다. 이를 통하여, 핵심기술을 파악과 기술적인 극복과제를 도출함으로써 국내의 연구수준과 나아갈 바를 점검하고자 한다.
