Abstract

Described herein are embodiments of forming a wireless power transfer system which uses at least two high-Q magnetically resonant elements, and which have values which are set to acceptable levels of electric and magnetic field strength and radiated power.

Claims (25)

1 . A method, comprising:

forming a wireless power transfer system which uses at least two high-Q magnetically resonant elements, and

which have values which are set to acceptable levels of electric and magnetic field strength and radiated power.

2 . A method as in claim 1 , wherein said acceptable levels comprise accepted standards for human safety.

3 . A method as in claim 1 , wherein said acceptable levels comprise accepted standards for interference.

4 . A method as in claim 1 , wherein said acceptable levels comprise accepted standards for both human safety and interference.

5 . A method as in claim 1 , wherein said wireless power transfer is carried out at 13.56 MHz +/−7 kHz.

6 . A method as in claim 1 , wherein said wireless transfer is carried out at 135 kHz.

7 . A method as in claim 1 , wherein said wireless power transfer system creates fields that are higher than fields allowed by the standards, but are only higher than those standards in areas where a person cannot be located.

8 . A method as in claim 1 , wherein said wireless power transfer system creates fields that are based both on biological effects and interference effects with other electronic devices.

9 . A wireless power transfer system for transferring power to a high-Q receiver, comprising:

a high-Q transmitter which creates electric and magnetic field and radiated power levels that comply with acceptable levels in the region of operation.

10 . A system as in claim 9 , wherein said acceptable levels for said transmitter are compliant with standards for human safety.

11 . A system as in claim 9 , wherein said levels are compliant with accepted standards for interference.

12 . A system as in claim 9 , wherein said levels are compliant with standards for both human safety and interference.

13 . A system as in claim 9 , wherein said wireless power transfer is carried out at 13.56 MHz +/−7 kHz.

14 . A system as in claim 9 , wherein said wireless power transfer is carried out at 135 kHz.

15 . A system as in claim 9 , wherein said transmitter creates a level that is higher than the level of the standard, but is only in an area where a user cannot be located.

16 . A system as in claim 9 , wherein said standards are standards both for biological effects, and also for interference effects.

17 . A method as in claim 1 , wherein said standards are set by standard setting agencies.

18 . A method as in claim 1 , wherein said standards are recommendations set by committees.

19 . A method as in claim 1 , wherein said standards comprise both human safety and interference regulations and recommendations.

20 . A system as in claim 9 , wherein said standards are set by standard setting agencies.

21 . A system as in claim 9 , wherein said standards are recommendations set by committees.

22 . A system as in claim 9 , wherein said standards comprise both human safety and interference regulations and recommendations.
