Abstract

A system and method are provided for wirelessly transmitting energy from a transmitter platform to a receiver platform. The system reduces the number of coils on the receiver platform to one, while the remaining coils are located on the transmitter platform. The spacing of the coils on the transmitting platform can be adjusted to optimize the magnetic flux transfer to the single coil on the receiving platform based on the unique distance between the transmitter and receiver platforms.
