Wireless Power and Signal Transmission Based on Time-sharing Multiplexing for WPT System

In wireless power transfer (WPT) systems, wireless transmission of signals is particularly important for some practical applications. An effective approach of signal and energy synchronous transmission based on time-sharing multiplexing of the same coupled coil is proposed in this paper. Using the same coupled coil, the signal transmission is carried on when interruption of power transmission happens. To realize the proposed method, the relationship between power transmission time and signal transmission time is provided to obtain the optimal transmission process of the power and signal. Besides, the power transmission efficiency (PTE) and the signal transmission rate (STR) are analyzed. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by the experiment.
