Wireless Charging System Introduction
Wireless charging system or wireless energy transmission is the transfer of electrical energy without any physical link. In this system, a transmitter generates an electromagnetic field which is transmitted across space to a receiver device, which supplies it to a connected electrical load. Therefore, it eliminates the need for physical wires increasing the mobility, safety and convenience of an electronic device. It is extremely useful in cases where connecting devices using wires is not safe or not possible. Different companies have started testing various methods of using wireless charging in automotive and defense sectors. Wireless charging pads for smartphones are already popular but are available only as the premium segment products.
