WIRELESS POWER TRANSMISSION Olivia Wunsch Section 06
Background Information Thomas Edison • Invented electricity • Electric conductor • Household lamp
Background Information Cont’d Nikola Tesla • 1899 to 1900 • Wireless Power Transmission • Tesla Tower http://www.teslasociety.com/teslatower.htm
How It Works • Complex process • Principle of resonant coupling • Coils need to be shrunk down • Problem with distance
Advantages Disadvantages Capital Cost is high Not successfully implemented • Eliminates transmission line cables, towers and sub stations • Global scale • Cost of electrical energy reduced for consumer • Possibilities of power
