Ampere and Faraday:
Founders of Electrical Engineering
Michael Faraday:
Discovered electricity could be
generated by mechanical machines.
Andre-Marie Ampere:
Proposed that magnetic fields and
electric currents must exist together.
Electricity: the underpinning technology of our
society.

Fundamentals of IPT
There are two observables in an IPT System
The Open Circuit voltage:
The Short Circuit Current:
They cannot be observed at the same time.

For increased Power:
Operate at a higher frequency
60Hz to 30kHz gives 500 x more power
IPT is impractical at utility frequencies!
Increase the coupling
Elegant solution. Creative!
Increase Q
Q > 5 is difficult to maintain
Increase I

Use a larger hammer! More cost, less efficient.
