Geometric approach for coupling enhancement of magnetically coupled coils

This paper presents a geometric approach for the enhancement of the coupling coefficient between two magnetically coupled coils. It is demonstrated that the coupling coefficient can be considerably enhanced, if the turns of the coils are not concentrated at the circumferences, but distributed across the diameters. For analysis, each of the two coils is assumed to be composed of concentric circular loops. The experimental results are in very good agreement with the theoretical results.
