The main idea is to store magnetic energy in two different spaces using the interaction between a permanent magnet and a magnetic material. The magnetic reluctance of the medium around the permanent magnet is modulated to change the magnetic flux path. The nonlinear properties of magnetic material as a critical phenomenon are used for effective modulation. As a result, a time-variant field is generated by the modulation of the permanent magnet flux. This non-resonant time-variant characterization means that the transmitter is not bound to the fundamental limits of the antennas and can transmit higher data rates. A prototype transmitter as a prove-of-concept is designed and tested based on the proposed idea. Compared to the rotating magnet, the prototyped transmitter can modulate $50\%$ of the stored energy of the permanent magnet with much lower power consumption.application/pdfenIn Copyright (InC)This Item is protected by copyright and/or related rights.
