Abstract:
Magnetic resonance coupling (MRC) has been utilized in wireless power transfer (WPT) to achieve mid-range contactless power supply. However, unintended users might also draw power from the transmission devices. In this letter, an MRC-WPT system with multiple power transmitters, one intended power receiver, and one unintended power receiver is investigated. We formulate a power security problem by limiting the unintended receiving power and, at the same time, maximizing the power of the intended user. Such an optimization problem is in general nonconvex. Nevertheless, a global optimal solution can be efficiently achieved with the aid of semidefinite relaxation approach. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
