Abstract

We investigate the stability of the transmission efficiency (TE) in nonradiative wireless power transfer (WPT) using a relay resonator. An equivalent circuit model is used to show mathematically that two suppositions are satisfied in an overcoupled region: first, the TE of relay-based WPT systems is always larger than that of conventional two-coil-based WPT systems, and second, as the coupling coefficient increases, the TE of two-coil-based WPT systems decreases severely, while the TE of relay-based WPT systems increases slightly. Consequently, we surmise that an intermediate relay can be used to achieve higher TE and stability, compared with conventional two-coil-based WPT systems. We verify that our analytical results are in good agreement with the experimental ones.
