Abstract

In this brief, we realize a simultaneous wireless power and information transfer (WPIT) system using co-existing coupled defected ground structure (DGS) resonators. First, co-existing DGS resonators are utilized in the design of simultaneous band stop filter (BSF) responses. Then, coupling two sets of co-existing DGS-BSFs achieves simultaneous WPIT. The DGS resonators have spiral elliptical-shape and share the same ground plane. The coupling characteristics are studied to improve the kQ-product of power carrier and reduce the cross-coupling with the Information carrier. A prototype is fabricated having a size 30 mm \times15 mm for both transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX). The separation between TX and RX is 15 mm. At this separation, the measured efficiencies are 71% and 66% at 49.6 MHz and 149 MHz, respectively, and the isolation between the power channel TX and the information channel RX is 39 dB at 49.6 MHz.
