Review Of Existing Microwave Beamed Wireless Energy Transfer Schemes

Wireless energy transfer being an early idea of efficient power transmission avoiding complexity with hazardous wires. It is known that electromagnetic energy also associated with the propagation of the electromagnetic waves. This paper presents the concept of wireless energy transfer based on Tesla‟s inventions i.e., transmitting power as microwaves from one place to another in order to reduce the transmission and distribution losses. This concept is known as Microwave Power transmission (MPT).This paper also presents the different methods of WET, mainly focussing on microwave beamed energy transfer and its advantages, disadvantages, biological impacts and applications of MPT.
