Applications

Induction

The transmission of information

. . .

The transmission of power
  1. Electric toothbrush charging
  2. Heating of induction cookware
  3. Powering of rail transportation engines
SEW Eurodrive demonstrated a practical monorail system that features non-contact power transfer at the SPS/IPC/Drives Exhibition in Nuremburg, Germany. The system, called Movipro, rides on a monorail track with embedded power-carrying conductors that inductively couple power to pickup coils in the vehicle. Servomotors on the vehicle drive it along the track.

Electromagnetic radiation (radio, optical, etc.)

The transmission of information
  1. AM, FM, and TV broadcasting
  2. Telecommunications and wireless Internet
  3. Aids to navigation such as the Global Positioning System
  4. fiber optic applications
The transmission of power
  1. Microwave beaming

Tuned induction

The transmission of information

. . .

The transmission of power
  1. Electric toothbrushes (to charge their batteries)
  2. Transcutaneous energy transfer (TET) systems in artificial hearts like AbioCor.
  3. Induction stove tops and microwave ovens also use wireless transfer of energy.
  4. Devices using this principle to charge portable consumer electronics such as cell phones are commercially available.
  5. The Powercast system, unveiled in 2007, is applicable for a number of devices with low power requirements. This could include LEDs, computer peripherals, wireless sensors, and medical implants.
  6. A company called eCoupled unveiled their own take on inductive coupling, which will soon be used on "Herman Miller" desks to recharge devices wirelesly.

Disturbed charge of ground and air

A method for, "the transmission of electrical energy without wires" that depends upon electrical conduction through the earth, announced by Nikola Tesla in 1904.

The transmission of information
  1. Establishment of a multi-channel global broadcasting system with programming including news, music, et cetera
  2. Interconnection of the world's telephone and telegraph exchanges, and stock tickers
  3. Transmission of written and printed matter, and data
  4. World wide reproduction of photographic images
  5. Establishment of a universal marine navigation and location system, including a means for the synchronization of precision timepieces
  6. Establishment of secure wireless telecommunications services.
The transmission of power
  1. In the distant future this system could allow for the elimination of many existing high-tension power transmission lines and facilitate the interconnection of electrical generation plants on a global scale. It could allow airplanes, ocean-going ships and other vehicles to operate without having to carry fuel.

Wireless wireless energy transmission

"Much has already been done towards making my system commercially available, in the transmission of energy in small amounts for specific purposes, as well as on an industrial scale. The results attained by me have made my scheme of intelligence transmission . . . easily realizable. . . . I have no doubt that it will prove very efficient in enlightening the masses, particularly in still uncivilized countries and less accessible regions, and that it will add materially to general safety, comfort and convenience, and maintenance of peaceful relations. It involves the employment of a number of plants, all of which are capable of transmitting individualized signals to the uttermost confines of the earth. Each of them will be preferably located near some important center of civilization and the news it receives through any channel will be flashed to all points of the globe. A cheap and simple device, which might be carried in one's pocket, may then be set up somewhere on sea or land, and it will record the world's news or such special messages as may be intended for it. Thus the entire earth will be converted into a huge brain, as it were, capable of response in every one of its parts. Since a single plant of but one hundred horse-power can operate hundreds of millions of instruments, the system will have a virtually infinite working capacity, and it must needs immensely facilitate and cheapen the transmission of intelligence. . . . Meanwhile, the transmission of energy on an industrial scale is not being neglected. The Canadian Niagara Power Company have offered me a splendid inducement, and next to achieving success for the sake of the art, it will give me the greatest satisfaction to make their concession financially profitable to them. In this first power plant, which I have been designing for a long time, I propose to distribute ten thousand horse-power under a tension of one hundred million volts, which I am now able to produce and handle with safety. . . ." -- Nikola Tesla, 1904

You completely rewrote Wireless energy transfer without discussing your changes first, including some which are wrong, like saying "Such systems can be used for the transfer of either information or power, or can be designed to perform both of these functions".

Although the physics are the same, wireless energy transfer is by definition the transmission of energy; not meaningful information.

Can you please try to make the article more accurate? I don't want to just revert all of your changes, but it is a lot of work to go through them all, so I'd like it if you could. — Omegatron 21:02, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

It is incorrect to say that, "wireless energy transfer is by definition the transmission of energy, and not meaningful information." Information is intimately tied together with matter. Saying that energy is not involved with the transmission of information is like saying that newspapers can be delivered without burning any fuel. GPeterson 15:45, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
It is incorrect to say that, "wireless energy transfer is by definition the transmission of energy,"
It is incorrect to say that "wireless energy transfer" is by definition a wireless transfer of energy?? Of course it's correct to say this. I have included some examples on the talk page. — Omegatron 09:36, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm sorry. . . . After all, I'm just a worm. GPeterson 02:15, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

What do you mean by that? — Omegatron 18:33, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

I mean that I am, figuratively, a worm, a bug, slime, i.e., an insignificant lifeform. GPeterson 17:14, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Wireless information transmission

. . .

Wireless power transmission

Some random data points to "stir the pot"...  :^D

Near field non contact power transmission, not to be confused with "Wireless Power Transmission".

Practical uses include cranes, AGV's, Railroad traction... and the work of "Nicola Tesla" (sic) discussed.

Wireless energy transmission

Hi. You are editing Wireless energy transmission, but the article is at Wireless energy transfer? — Omegatron

I'm very confused. What are you doing? — Omegatron 23:46, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
