A CONDUCTIVE LAYER OF A LARGE SURFACE FOR DISTRIBUTION OF POWER USING CAPACITIVE POWER TRANSFER

摘要

An apparatus (300) for supplying power to a load in a capacitive power transfer system comprises a power generator (350) operating at a first frequency; a transmitter comprising a plurality of first electrodes (310) connected to a first terminal of the power generator (350)and a plurality of second electrodes (320) connected to a second terminal of the power generator (350) of a transmitter portion of the apparatus (300); and a plurality of inductors (340), wherein each inductor of the plurality of inductors is connected between a pair of a first electrode and a second electrode of the plurality of first and second electrodes, wherein each inductor comprises,together with a parasitic capacitor (330) formed between each pair of the first electrode and the second electrode,a resonant circuit at the first frequency in order to compensate for current loss due to parasitic capacitances.
