Multiple-Inputs and Multiple-Outputs Wireless Power Combining and Delivering Systems.

In this paper, we investigated the effect of power combining and delivering in multiinput and multioutput wireless energy transmission systems, which consist of more than one transmitter antennas as sources and more than one receiver antennas as loads and repeaters. Theoretical expressions were developed to model the system operation that can be in a large-scale wireless energy network architecture. System characteristics, such as power transfer between antennas, power losses induced in each antenna, wireless efficiency, coil misalignment, and power fluctuation due to the loss of frequency synchronization were examined by theory and verified with experiments. Measurement results matched well with the theory demonstrating the feasibility of combining and delivering power with high efficiencies in large-scale wireless energy transmission systems.
