Abstract

A capacitive powering system(100) comprises a low power driver (111), a high power driver (112), a plurality of pairs of transmitter electrodes separated into a plurality of power sub-areas (210-1, 210-N) including at least a group of high power sub-areas (210-1, 210-M) connected to the high power driver and a group of low power sub-areas (210-M+1, 210-N) connected to the low power driver, and an insulating layer (130) having a first side and a second side opposite to each other, the pairs of plurality of transmitter electrodes are coupled to the first side of the insulating layer. The system is configured to forma capacitive impedance between the pairs of plurality of transmitter electrodes and a plurality of pairs of receiver electrodes (141, 144) placed in proximity to the second side of the insulating layer to wirelessly power each load connected to each of the pair of receiver electrodes.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority to US Provisional Application Nos. 61 / 523,928 and 61 / 523,929, filed August 16, 2012, and US Provisional Application No. 61 / 622,102, filed August 10, 2012. technical field [0002] The present invention relates generally to capacitive power systems for wireless power transfer, and more particularly to structures for allowing efficient power transfer in large area wireless power systems including hotspots. Background technique [0003] Wireless power transmission refers to the supply of power without any connection or contact, so the power supply of electronic devices is performed through a wireless medium. One common application for contactless power supply is for charging portable electronic devices such as mobile phones, laptop computers and the like. [0004] One implementation for wireless power transfer is through inductive powering systems. In such systems, electromagnetic induction between a source (transmitter) and a device (re...
