<p>An inductive loop power transmission system intended primarily for wireless electrosurgical use has a transmitter including a radio frequency power oscillator with a resonant output circuit coupled to a loop antenna, and a receiver with a receiving antenna (L1a) and a power output (L1b) for an electrosurgical appliance. In the receiver, a signalling circuit (Cp, D1, D2, Ct, R3, M1) produces a pulse signal which is representative of the power received by the receiver insofar as the repetition rate of the pulses is generally proportional to the average power level. This pulse signal is used periodically and momentarily to detune a resonant antenna circuit (L1a, Cr, Cd) of the receiver, causing corresponding alterations in the loading of a resonant antenna of the transmitter. These alterations in transmitted power are detected in the transmitter and used to vary the transmitter output power so as to maintain the receiver power level at the receiver substantially constant.</p> |
