Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Described herein are improved configurations for a wireless power transfer involving photovoltaic panels. Described are methods and designs that use electric energy from a photovoltaic module to energize at least one wireless energy source to produce an oscillating magnetic field for wireless energy transfer. The source may be configured and tuned to present an impedance to a photovoltaic module wherein said impedance enables substantial extraction of energy from said photovoltaic module.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A photovoltaic energy system with wireless energy transfer, the system comprising: a photovoltaic module generating variable electrical power, wherein the variable electrical power generated by the photovoltaic module varies due to changes in solar irradiance onto the photovoltaic module; and a wireless energy source, connected to the photovoltaic module and powered by the electrical power generated by the photovoltaic module, the wireless energy source co…
