For mid-range wireless power applications, the load is normally far away from the power source. In this project, a new method is proposed to determine the load impedance and load power without using any direct output feedback. Based only on the information of the input voltage and current, the load impedance and load power can be monitored and controlled without using any wired or wireless feedback from the load. This new method can therefore eliminate the need for any directly measured output feedback, which was previously thought to be essential. It also makes the power control of a wireless power transfer very simple. The concept is verified by the comparison between the computed results and practical results of an 8-ring domino wireless power transfer system. A good degree of accuracy has been achieved in the verification. 2013 IEEE.
