Abstract

See full text

A system includes a first resonator coupled to an energy source and a second resonator located a distance from the first resonator and coupled to the first resonator to provide near-field wireless energy transfer between the first resonator and the second resonator. The first resonator and the second resonator are non-radiative structures having a resonant frequency. The system also includes an artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) having the resonant frequency and arranged within the system to shape the near-field of at least one of the first resonator and the second resonator. The AMC includes a layer of unit cells arranged in a periodic pattern enabling the AMC to reflect the near-field. Each unit cell of the AMC includes a plurality of electronic components.
