Abstract: A system includes a power source, a transmitter circuit, a conductor, and a receiver circuit. The transmitter circuit is supplied by the power source and wirelessly supplies the receiver circuit via the conductor. The conductor includes a plurality of distributed capacitances coupled in series with the conductor. The receiver circuit includes a primary coil and a secondary coil. The primary coil has at least two turns and includes a plurality of distributed capacitances. The transmitter circuit includes an Open Loop Reactance Matching (OLRM) control circuit, a first inverter, a second inverter, and a third inverter. The OLRM control circuit controls the first inverter to generate a high frequency AC voltage to be supplied to the conductor. During wireless power transfer, the OLRM control circuit performs reactance matching by controlling the second and third inverters to maintain the transmitter voltage and current in phase without requiring any feedback sensing.

Abstract: A circuit comprises a power source, an Open Loop Reactance Matching Circuit Control Signal Generator (OLRMCCSG), an Open Loop Reactance Matching (OLRM) circuit, and a load. The power source supplies an input voltage and an input current used to drive the load. The load is an inductive type load or a capacitive type load. If the power source operates as a voltage source, then the OLRMCCSG uses input voltage information to control the OLRM circuit to generate a reactance matching voltage that is phase delayed with respect to the input voltage. If the power source operates as a current source, then the OLRMCCSG uses input current information to control the OLRM circuit to generate a reactance matching current that is phase delayed with respect to the input current. The reactance matching voltage or the reactance matching current causes the input voltage and the input current to be in phase.
