Overview 

Wireless power transceivers are widely used in residential, medical, and industrial applications such as smart home systems, biomedical implants, wireless phone charging, electric vehicle systems, and wire-production lines ... 

Purpose

Especially in biomedical applications, using direct power or battery power is inconvenient and unsafe, so WPT is an effective solution to overcome these problems. WPT circuit can be used to charge the temperature sensors in the sole.

Development Direction 

Project "Research on the design of wireless power transceivers for low power biomedical applications integrated on shoe sole" focuses on the analysis and design of two-way Inductive Wireless Power Transfer (I-WPT) system and Capacitive Wireless Power Transfer (C-WPT). Then the comparison gives the best way to go further for the system by implementing the Integrated-Circuit design to optimize the system size and improve the system performance.
