The practice-oriented reference book consists of three parts: Basic Principles of Wireless Power Transmission, Wireless Power Transfer Systems, and Applications. It is available from Würth Elektronik and in bookstores.
The first part of the reference book has been completely revised and explains the physical principles of the various methods of contactless power transmission. The key standards and developments of the technology are also discussed. The second part describes the wireless power transfer systems and the different topologies of wireless power transmission. In the same chapter, the correct selection of the required transmitter and receiver coils to increase efficiency, and the available transistors, are discussed. The practice-oriented third part is supplemented with an innovative application: NFC together with wireless power transmission. An overview of EMI-related topics rounds off the compilation of application examples in the practice section.
