Wireless energy transfer

Wireless energy transmission is the transmission of electrical energy without wires for the purposes of simultaneous point-to-point telecommunications and/or broadcasting, and the transmission of electrical power. It allows for the remote powering distant receiving devices by the same means as the programm, bi-direction data, or control signal is received. It also mitigates the signal-to-noise ratio problem associated with conventional radio systems, when the detected energy or percentage of power received becomes too low to recover the signal successfully.

Applications

RFID

Unlike typical RFID systems, only one channel is used with substantially greater range.

Remote Control and Propulsion of UAVs

In a letter to Benjamin F. Miessner regarding self-propelled automaton Nikola Tesla wrote:

"In an article in the Century Magazine . . . I have related the circumstances which led me to develop the idea of a self-propelled automaton. My experiments were begun sometime in '92 and from that period, on, until '95, in my laboratory at 35 South Fifth Avenue, I exhibited a number of contrivances and perfected plans for several complete automata. After the destruction of my laboratory by fire in '95, there was an interruption in these labors which, however, were resumed in '96 in my new laboratory at 46 Houston Street where I made more striking demonstrations, in many instances actually transmitting the whole motive energy to the devices instead of simply controlling the same from a distance. . . ."

The World Wireless System

Wardenclyffe

In addition to broadcasting and bi-directional to point-to-point telecommunications the Wardenclyffe station, located on eastern Long Island New York was also intended to demonstrate the transmission of electrical power.

It is intended to give practical demonstrations of these principles with the plant illustrated. As soon as completed, it will be possible for a business man in New York to dictate instructions, and have them instantly appear in type at his office in London or elsewhere. He will be able to call up, from his desk, and talk to any telephone subscriber on the globe, without any change whatever in the existing equipment. An inexpensive instrument, not bigger than a watch, will enable its bearer to hear anywhere, on sea or land, music or song, the speech of a political leader, the address of an eminent man of science, or the sermon of an eloquent clergyman, delivered in some other place, however distant. In the same manner any picture, character, drawing, or print can be transferred from one to another place. Millions of such instruments can be operated from but one plant of this kind. More important than all of this, however, will be the transmission of power, without wires, which will be shown on a scale large enough to carry conviction.

Wardenclyffe was the first of many installations to be constructed near major population centers around the world. If Tesla's plans had proceeded without interruption the Long Island prototype would have been followed by a second plant built on the southwest coast of England, perhaps in Cornwall. Each of these towers would have enclosed a large magnifying transmitter of a design loosely based upon the apparatus which Tesla assembled at the Colorado Springs Experimental Station in 1899.

Using a global array of these magnifying transmitters, it was Tesla's plan to establish what he called the World Wireless System, providing multi-channel global broadcasting, an array of secure wireless telecommunications services, and a long range aid to navigation, including means for the precise synchronization of clocks. In a more highly developed state he envisioned the World System would expand to include the wireless transmission of electrical power.
