Abstract :
The design of the Witricity device is shown in this paper and its lateral and angular misalignment are investigated. The device, which includes transmitter and receiver, has identical design purposely to resonate at a same frequency range. The coupling efficiency degrades as the lateral and angular misalignments are increased. The Witricity device is able to transfer power efficiently at 2 cm distance with lateral and angular misalignment of 10 mm and 250, respectively.
