Enhancing Drone Technology with Wireless Power

Wireless power transfer (WPT) is a technology that eliminates the need for connections in energy transmission. This research explores the optimization of inductive coupling WPT systems to charge drone batteries. The system utilizes an inverter to generate AC, which is transmitted wirelessly through a coil. The receiving coil uses rectification to regulate outputs. Importances such as Misalignment, efficiency, and losses are analyzed through simulations and experiments. The study aims to maximize efficiency while stably charging. The results will contribute to developing scalable WPT for drones, enabling extended flights and reducing constraints in various applications, including surveillance, delivery, and space exploration.
