Abstract :
In this paper, the electrode structure to reduce channel loss in lossy dielectric material from the viewpoint of power transfer system is presented. Under the assumption that human body is lossy dielectric material at 5 MHz, the channel loss of the proposed structure is calculated using EM simulator. Moreover, the simulation results of proposed structure is compared with that of previous structure.
