On the Design of Discrete Apertures for High-Efficiency Wireless Power Transfer

This communication deals with the design of discrete apertures (DAs) for wireless power transfer (WPT) within the Fresnel region and provides some design guidelines to enhance WPT efficiency. In fact, although the aperture excitations optimization problem, given two specific continuous or DAs, has been already researched, the effect of antenna arrays design choices (such as the number of antenna e...
