Abstract

Systems and methods for distributing power over a relatively long distance by sending high frequency alternating current (AC) over a transmission subsystem between a sender subsystem and a receiver subsystem. Power may be sent from the sender subsystem to the receiver subsystem over a transmission subsystem that includes first and second conductors, such as pair of shielded or unshielded wires twisted together. The sender subsystem may utilize a resonant converter to provide sinusoidal oscillation, which greatly reduces the radio emissions normally caused in DC systems due to high frequency current draws by a load. The receiver system may include a resonant converter or discontinuous conduction mode flyback converter, which provides DC power to a load.
