In this chapter, the well‐known coupled magnetic resonance system (CMRS) is explained, stating that it is nothing but new and is a sort of conventional inductive power transfer system (IPTS). There are three major magnetic couplings between coils in CMRS: source–transmitter (Tx), Tx–receiver (Rx), and Rx–load couplings, respectively. Except for Tx–Rx coupling, other couplings do not directly contribute to wireless power transfer. Hence, this miscellaneous coupling can be replaced with a lumped transformer with a ferrite core. Because there is only a Tx–Rx coupling, the CMRS becomes compact in size and robust to ambient changes. Moreover, the design of CMRS is drastically simplified without complicated multiresonance tunings due to a small magnetic flux linkage from the source coil or the load coil.
Coreless coils are used for Tx and Rx coils to examine the characteristics of CMRS with lumped transformers. A detailed static analysis on the explicit circuit model of the proposed CMRS and design procedures are fully established. Experiments for 1 W and 10 W prototype CMRSs with a class‐E inverter at the switching frequency of 500 kHz, where the quality factors are less than 100, verified the usefulness of the proposed model, achieving 80% of the maximum Tx coil‐to‐load efficiency. It is concluded that the conventional CMRS, in general, is just a special form of IPTS where the quality factor is extremely high with coreless Tx and Rx coils.
