Topic:

Electromagnetic Compatibility for Wireless Power Transfer

Wireless power transfer (WPT) is one of the most promising technologies opening the huge market currently in mobile devices and electric vehicles, and it expends the future applications to biomedical implants, wearable devices, IoT sensors, and so on. The WPT technology provides convenience and safety with its wireless connection, however, it is true that our electromagnetic environment is threatened by the unwanted electromagnetic field from the WPT system, and the concerns on the electromagnetic interference to other electronic devices or human bodies are consequently increasing.

This talk covers WPT technology and the issues related with the electromagnetic compatibility and electromagnetic field. Beginning with the basic concept and applications of the WPT system, recent advances in technical solutions for electromagnetic safety aspects of wireless power transfer system are reviewed. The current issues on standardization including the human body safety and the future technologies will be discussed, to eventually find out the directions to get answers for the questions on the electromagnetic safety of WPT systems.
