Electric-Field-Based Wireless Energy Transfer

Capacitive Wireless Power Transfer (CWPT) transfers energy through high-frequency electric fields rather than magnetic fields. Instead of using coils and magnetic flux, it utilizes paired conductive electrodes to form a capacitive coupling path, enabling contactless power delivery across a small air gap.

Its ultra-thin structure, low magnetic interference, and compatibility with metal-rich environments make CWPT a promising solution for compact electronics, medical devices, rotating systems, and next-generation embedded applications where conventional inductive charging may not be ideal.

Power While in Motion

Dynamic Wireless Power Transfer (DWPT) enables continuous energy delivery to moving vehicles and robotic systems without requiring them to stop for charging. By dynamically activating power segments or tracking the receiver position in real time, the system maintains efficient wireless energy transfer throughout the entire movement process.

This technology is designed for autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), AGVs, conveyor systems, and industrial automation, enabling uninterrupted operation, higher productivity, and reduced downtime in next-generation intelligent facilities.

Figure Explanation

(a) System Overview

The mobile robot carries a receiver coil while the transmitter is embedded beneath the travel path. High-frequency alternating current flowing through the transmitter generates a magnetic field, which induces electrical current in the receiver coil as the robot moves above it.

(b) Single Transmission Conductor

A single transmission conductor creates an alternating magnetic field around the cable. As the receiver passes through this field, electrical energy is induced in the pickup coil. This configuration is simple but provides a relatively limited magnetic coverage.

(c) Cascaded Transmission Conductors

Multiple transmission conductors are arranged in parallel to create a larger and more uniform magnetic field. The merged magnetic field improves coupling stability, extends the effective charging region, and enables more reliable wireless power transfer for continuously moving vehicles.
