In this paper, two-dimensional resonant transmitter and receiver for WPT is designed and implemented using method that use $90^{\circ}$ phase shifted input power to orthogonal transmitter. Mutual inductance is minimized by using proposed each orthogonal coil of receiver and the method that inputs $90^{\circ}$ phase shifted power is used to radiate magnetic energy into two dimension. This method facilitates two dimensional resonant WPT by solving power efficiency degradation problem according to location in general WPT. The resonance frequency is 6.78 MHz and the distance between transmitting and receiving resonator is 200 mm. The transfer efficiency of the proposed wireless power transfer system is higher than 40 % at all direction.

In this paper, analytical calculations using a novel mutual inductance formula for a resonant wireless power transmission system using helical coils. The look-up table of critical variables during the mutual inductance calculation process was formulated. The calculation results for resonant frequency and insertion loss were compared with experimental results when the distance between the two helical coils in a structure where the transmission and reception is symmetrical was varied with 10 mm increments from 53 mm to 500 mm. On average, the resonant frequency showed a difference of 5.63 % between the experimental results and the calculation results. The insertion loss had an average difference 2.25 dB where the smallest difference of 0.33 dB occurred with 290 mm. It was found that the experimental results without using a balun were in greater agreement with the calculation results.

Recently, wireless power transmission has attracted much interest and is the subject of much research in industry and academia. As its name implies, it is a technology which involves transferring power without wires. This paper presents the design of an ICT-based wireless power transmission system. The proposed system consists of a wireless transceiver unit and high-efficiency coil unit, which can increase both the transmission efficiency and the effective power distance. In particular, the wireless transceiver unit was designed to work with the ICT technique to enable real-time remote monitoring. Also, studies were done relating to the effect of reducing the standby power. The optimal frequency of IGBT devices used in industrial wireless power systems of 20[KHz] was utilized. The values of $23.9[{\mu}H]$ and $2.64[{\mu}F]$ were selected for L and C, respectively, through many field experiments designed to optimize the system design. In addition, an output current controlling algorithm was developed for the purpose of reducing the standby power. The results presented in this paper represent a 75[%] to 85[%] higher power transmission efficiency with a 10[%] increase in the effective power transmission distance compared with the existing systems. As a result, the proposed system exhibits a lower standby power and maintenance costs. Also, the designed wireless transceiver unit facilitates fault detection by means of user acquired data with the development of the ICT applied program.

In this paper, using the globular structure designed and implemented for the transmitter and the receiver resonant wireless power transfer(WPT). The coil of the transmitter was proposed to emit a magnetic energy in three-dimensional space by winding a ball shape. Each side of the transmitter has been designed to obtain a high Q value by a spiral structure. This solves the problem that the transfer efficiency decreases rapidly depending on the location in the conventional WPT. The resonance frequency is used 6.78 MHz and the distance between the trasnitter and the receiver is 200 mm. The transfer efficiency of the proposed WPT system is higher than 40% at all direction.

This paper has optimized WPT (wireless power transfer) antenna, and compared EM (electromagnetic) simulation result with measurement for the magnetic resonant type standard of A4WP (alliance for wireless power) using 6.78MHz frequency and 1m distance. Power transmission distance is affected by various factors such as system shape, antenna size, and resonator coil pitch etc, which were confirmed by the EM simulation. By simulation an optimized WPT antenna was designed for a fixed distance, and the transmission loss ${\mid}S_{21}{\mid}$ has been calculated with changing distance. Measurement was carried for the fabricated antenna, and the measured transmission loss is 1.5dB with 70% efficiency at maximum 1.3m distance compared to the simulated loss of 1.6dB with 69% efficiency

A wireless power transfer system with a negative impedance converter(NIC) was designed and tested. The system was investigated to identify the effects of ferrites and conductors. To improve the power transfer efficiency(PTE), the Q-factor of the transmitter was enhanced by the negative resistance generated by the NIC. The NIC was composed of an Op-Amp and resistors. The negative resistance was obtained with respect to a resistor connected in a feedback loop. The dimension of the Tx coil was $250mm{\times}250mm{\times}0.8mm$. The impedance and Q-factor were $31+j1874{\Omega}$ and 60, respectively. The negative resistance was selected to be $30{\Omega}$, and the Q-factor was increased to 900 by reduction of the transmitter resistance, which was about 15 times higher than that of a conventional transmitter. The measured PTE was greatly improved in comparison to that of a conventional system. These results demonstrate that the PTE is enhanced by using the NIC.
