"Current Research and Development of Wireless Power Transfer via Radio Waves and the Application”
IEEE MTT/AP Orlando chapter, & Raj Mittra Distinguished Lecture Program
Date/time: Friday, April 7, 2017 (5:00 PM-6:00 PM)
SPEAKER: Dr. Naoki Shinohara
Kyoto University, Japan
ABSTRACT:
Theory, technologies, applications, and current R&D status of the wireless power transfer (WPT) will be presented. The talk will cover both the far-field WPT via radio waves, especially beam-type and ubiquitous-type WPT, and energy harvesting from broadcasting waves. The research of the WPT was started from the far-field WPT via radio waves, in particular the microwaves in 1960s. In recent years this became a hot topic again due to the rapid growth of wireless devices. Theory and technologies of antenna and circuits will be presented in case of beam-type and ubiquitous-type WPT. The industrial applications and current R&D status of the WPT via radio waves will be also presented.
