    The goal This course trains students to design wireless battery chargers for electric vehicles and other mobile devices. In addition, they will be able to design autonomous power systems based on the conversion of environmental energy into electrical energy, such as solar, mechanical, electrostatic, and electromagnetic energy.
    The outcome Understanding the principles of wireless power transmission, modelling and design of circuits for wireless charging of batteries of electric vehicles and other mobile devices. Analysis, modelling and implementation of low-power generators based on ambient energy conversion to supply autonomous electronic devices.
