OVERVIEW

INTRODUCTION• One of the major issues in power system is the

losses occurring during the transmission and distribution of electrical power.

• The percentage of loss of power during transmission and distribution is approximated as 26%.

• The main reason for power loss during transmission and distribution is the resistance of wires used in grid.

• According to the World Resources Institute (WRI), India’s electricity grid has the highest transmission and distribution losses in the world – a whopping 27-40%.

• Tesla has proposed methods of transmission of electricity using electromagnetic induction.

DEFINITION

• As the word wireless means “without wire”. • Wireless energy transfer or wireless power is the

transmission of electrical energy from a power source to an electric load without interconnecting man made conductors.

• Wireless transmission is useful in cases where interconnecting wires are inconvenient, hazardous or impossible.

HISTORY

Sir NICOLAI TESLA was the first one to propose and research the idea of wireless transmission in 1899, since than many scholars and scientists have been working to make his dream a reality.

• 1899: Tesla continues wireless power transmission research in Colorado Springs and writes, "the inferiority of the induction method would appear immense as compared with the disturbed charge of ground and air method

• 1961: William C. Brown publishes an article exploring possibilities of microwave power transmission

• 2009: Sony shows a wireless electrodynamics-induction powered TV set, 60 W over 50 cm

METHODS

Different methods of transmission proposed by different scientist and scholars are:

1. Atmospheric conduction method of Tesla

2. Electrodynamic induction method: Microwave method Laser method

Atmospheric conduction method

In 1899 Sir NICOLAI TESLA and HEINRICH HERTZ

powered a fluorescent lamp keeping it 25 miles away

from source without using wire. Wireless power

transmission experiments at WARDEN CLYFFE High

frequency current, of a Tesla coil, could light lamps

filled with gas (like neon). In this method a closed

circuit is made using transmitter, ionized path

between upper atmosphere and transmitter, second

ionized path connecting receiver. The circuit back to

the transmitter is completed through the earth .

Atmospheric conduction method

High potential is maintained at transmitter and receiver end as well. A high potential transmitter transmits an “electromotive impulse” through the ionized path to the upper atmosphere where it ionizes the air, and this air between the transmitter and receiver would conduct like a neon tube .

LIMITATIONS OF ATMOSPHERIC CONDUCTION METHOD

• Economically challenging.

• Periodic changes in atmospheric condition.

• Maintaining high tower potential every time.

ELECTRODYNAMIC INDUCTION METHOD We bring electromagnetic radiation into

practice, which uses far field technique in order to achieve range into kilos, which includes two techniques:

• LASERS• MICROWAVE

through atmosphereSimple receiver

LASER transmission

LASER METHOD• In the case of electromagnetic radiation closer to

visible region of spectrum (10s of microns (um) to 10s of nm), power can be transmitted by converting electricity into a laser beam that is then pointed at a solar cell receiver.  This mechanism is generally known as "power beaming" because the power is beamed at a receiver that can convert it to usable electrical energy.

MICROWAVE METHOD• Power transmission via radio waves can be made

more directional, allowing longer distance power beaming, with shorter wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation, typically in the microwave range. A rectenna may be used to convert the microwave energy back into electricity. Rectenna conversion efficiencies exceeding 95% have been realized. Power beaming using microwaves has been proposed for the transmission of energy from orbiting solar power satellites to Earth.• The principle of

receiving points are along a line-of-sightCan reach the places which are remote

ADVANTAGES

DISADVANTAGES

• When microwaves are used, interference may arise

• When LASERS are used, conversion is inefficient due to absorption losses.

• It is radioactive in nature • Distance constraint , initial cost is high. • Field strength has to be under safety levels • High frequency signals should be supplied for

air ionization which is not feasible.
