Abstract
A resonant inductive wireless power transfer system, consisting of a primary (transmitter) circuit and secondary (receiver) circuit, was designed and implemented. This document also contains a novel indirect feedback method to optimize the power efficiency of a wireless transfer system. The indirect feedback method presented allows the primary circuit to adapt its power delivery to the power requirements of the secondary circuit without requiring a direct feedback signal from the secondary. Also presented are the results of the implementation of the indirect feedback method.
