discuss the different approaches of wireless charging devices.
Inductive Coupling
One of the oldest techniques of transferring energy
wirelessly is inductive coupling. An inductor is a wire formed
in a coil where an induced current produces a magnetic field
which is based on the principle of electromagnetic induction
[4]. Electromagnetic induction was first discovered by
English scientist, Michael Faraday in 1831. He found that by
moving a magnet through a coil of wire, a voltage was
induced across the coil. When a complete path was created,
the induced voltage caused an induced current. Faraday's

represents the power loss of the inductor and RL is the load.
In order to strengthen the magnetic field of an inductor, a
ferromagnetic core is inserted between the coils. A
ferromagnetic core provides a better path for the magnetic
lines of force and increases the amount of coupling between
the coils [4].
Devices such as electric toothbrushes, charging mats for
cell phones, and medical implants use this method to
recharge batteries. Some of the disadvantages of inductive
charging are the inefficiency of power transmission at a
further distance, inability to control the electromagnetic
interference, and the electric heat lost.

Capacitive Coupling
A third method for wireless power transfer involves
separating the power source and the load with two parallel
plates. These plates act as the anode and cathode of a typical
parallel plate capacitor. Since the electric field is contained
between the plates, there is very little energy leakage.
However, this design's effectiveness is heavily dependent
upon the available area on the receiving system, and the
distance between the TX and RX plates.

Coupling [5]
There have been some attempts to reduce transfer loss in
inductive coupling [5][6].
Methods such as implementing ultra-thin coils, higher
frequencies, and enhancing drive electronics are possible
solutions. When implementing higher frequency induction to
deliver high power the efficiency reaches 86%, the other two
methods are still being investigated for any improvements. Fig 3.4: Basic Capacitive Coupled System [8]
Resonant Induction Power is transferred to load based on the relationship:

greatest between wide, flat, parallel, narrowly separated
conductors.
Fixed Capacitor
The fixed capacitor is constructed in such a manner that it
possesses a fixed value of capacitance which cannot be
adjusted; it was used in the project to maintain a constant and
unchanging value of capacitance and also has the ability to
hold an electrical charge.

Electrolytic Capacitor
The electrolytic capacitor is used in the project because
they are polarized capacitors whose anode electrode (+) are
made of a special metal on which an insulating oxide layer
originates by anodiazation (forming), which acts as the
dielectric of the electrolytic capacitor.

the input point of components/socket like transistors,

this test is performed without ICs. Firstly, we check the Coupling
output of the High frequency transformer; whether we get the
required 12V AC voltage.
 We then apply this voltage to the power supply circuit.
Note that we do this test without ICs because if there is any
excessive voltage, this may lead to damaging the ICs.
 We check for the input to the voltage regulator (7805)
i.e., are we getting an input of 12V and a required output.
EX: if we are using 7805 we get output of 5V at output pin.
 This output from the voltage regulator is given to the
power supply pin of specific ICs. Hence we check for the
voltage level at those pins whether we are getting required
voltage. Similarly, we check for the other terminals for the
required voltage. In this way we can be assured that the
voltage at all the terminals is as per the requirement.

precautions taken:
