Abstract :
In this paper, the feasibility of resonant electrical coupling as a wireless power transfer technique is studied. A detailed comparison between this technique and the more popular resonant magnetic coupling based on circuit theory is provided. In this comparison, the strong duality that exists between the two techniques is demonstrated. The analytical results obtained are compared with the results measured with a proof-of-concept prototype.
