Inductive power transfer (IPT) systems intolerance to misalignment limits their ability to transfer energy to objects with flexible or dynamic position. In this thesis, a novel misalignment tolerant multi-coil design is proposed for supplying stationary and dynamic battery-free wireless devices. A compact architecture composed of individually switchable 3 layers of printed coils arranged with overlap for excellent surface coverage. A hybrid architecture based on three compact AC supply modules reduces the supply circuit complexity on the sending side. The sending side activation procedure is...
