Abstract :
An elaborate investigation regarding the efficiency of a novel metamaterial-based wireless power transfer (WPT) system, capable of delivering useful energy to the nodes of a nanonetwork, is systematically pursued in this paper. The WPT apparatus incorporates metamaterial fundamental blocks as its elementary resonators to exploit magnetic resonance coupling. The proposed arrangement unveils a noteworthy enhancement of the power supplied to the load as well as a promising minimization of the interaction with adjacent nanodevices.
