Abstract(s)
Wireless power transmission presents itself as being a solution to some common problems of the extensive use of electronic devices such as the removal of parasitic components present in feeding pads and the constant charge of electronic devices without the need of wires. This solution becomes attractive, for example, as a means of increasing the flight time of battery dependent unmanned aerial vehicles. Microstrip antenna due to their ease of manufacturing, low fabrication cost, support of different polarizations and conformability to irregular surfaces and different substrates, seem very advantageous in being used for microwave power transmission. This paper presents a linearly polarized 16-element antenna array with uniform amplitude and phase excitation proposed for power transmission while both a linearly and circularly polarized single element patch are proposed for reception.
