Abstract

Safety of Wireless Power Transfer

Overview

Wireless power transfer (WPT) technologies are increasingly being developed to power devices such as cellphones, laptops, and other mobile communication devices without the need for physical cables.

Findings

WPT systems enhance the convenience by enabling battery charging through electromagnetic radiation, aiming for a seamless mobile experience. WPT not only proposes to eliminate the need for cables but also to integrate power delivery with data transmission, fostering an environment where devices are perpetually powered.

The implementation of this technology on a large scale requires substantial electromagnetic power, raising important concerns regarding the safety and health effects of prolonged exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation.

Conclusion

While WPT offers significant advantages for mobile and electronic device usability, it necessitates rigorous research into the health risks associated with electromagnetic radiation, prioritizing user safety in design and application of such technologies.
