Analysis of Capacitive Wireless Power Transfer SIMO Systems based on the Duality Principle

Abstract

Inductive wireless power transfer is a more mature technology than capacitive wireless transfer. The aim of this work is to illustrate the duality principle as tool to transfer results from the inductive into the capacitive wireless power research. The efficiency maximization by varying the loads for a Single-Input Multiple-Output system is considered to exemplify this principle, and to highlight some limitations.
