Zusammenfassung:A wireless power transfer device includes a first transmitting coil oriented along a first axis; a second transmitting coil on the first transmitting coil and oriented along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis; a nonmagnetic material magnetically decoupling the first transmitting coil from the second transmitting coil in an area of overlap between the first and second transmitting coils; and a driver configured to provide first and second equal currents to the first and second transmitting coils, respectively, to generate a rotating magnetic field, the driver being configured to provide the first and second currents to have equal frequencies, substantially equal amplitudes, and a phase difference of substantially 90 degrees.
