Getting in Tune
• http://www.sciencedaily.comResearchers have shown that it is possible to transmit power wirelessly by using magnetic resonance. Even minor changes in how the transmitter or receiver is tuned, however, can result in faulty power transmission.
A new prototype developed at NC State addresses the problem by automatically -- and precisely -- re-tuning the receivers in WPT systems. The researchers focused on receivers because methods already exist that allow researchers to use electronics to precisely tune the transmitters.
