Streamlining Drone Battery Charging: The Power of Wireless Transmission and Embedded Automation

This project introduces a non-radiative wireless power transmission method for charging the batteries of drones, specifically unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). It involves the development of an advanced drone battery charging system consisting of a charging station equipped with wireless power transmitters and a receiver for drone battery charging. The system utilizes a resonance inductive coupling-based wireless power transmission technique. While the efficiency of power transmission in inductive coupling is reliant on a strong coupling between the transmitter and receiver, drones often struggle to land accurately on charging stations or devices to achieve maximum coupling for efficient wireless power transfer. To align the transmitter and the receiver for the coupling without loss, infrared sensors and the ultrasonic sensors are used and the power is transmitted. However, the proposed system is a novel approach based on the hill Embedded Automation system to regulate the coupling without the need for physical sensors.
