Abstract

Winding coils are key elements in the design and the implementation of an effective wireless power charging platform for wireless devices such as mobile phones, smart phones and tablet computers. Planar winding inductors are low-cost, ready to integrate with the electronics and fully compatible with a general printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturing process. This paper addresses the design and the simulation of the planar winding inductors in order to overcome some drawbacks of such structures concerning mainly the quality factor and the resistive/thermal losses.
