ELECTROMAGNETIC SYSTEM DESIGN FOR WIRELESS POWER By JOAQUIN JESUS CASANOVA A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2010 °c 2010 Joaquin Jesus Casanova 2 To my family, for their support and encouragement 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, I’d like to thank Dr. Jenshan Lin for being the most helpful, understanding, and encouraging advisor a student could ask for. He is one of the rare professors who will give his students to explore their research on their own, and in doing so, allows them to truly learn. Thanks are also due to my commitee, Dr. Henry Zmuda, Dr. Robert Moore, and Dr. Subrata Roy, for their encouragement and insightful questions. They put me at ease without going easy on me. I owe a debt of gratitude to Zhen Ning Low for taking the first steps on this project, for his help understanding power amplifiers, and for his friendship and conversation. He kept me sane. I thank Jason Taylor, Ashley Trowell, and Raul Chinga for their technical support, guidance, and friendship in working on this project. Thanks also go out to my parents and my brother, who always supported me, even if it did seem like my life was nothing but my research to the exclusion of all else. Finally, I’d like to thank Florida High Tech Corridor and Florida Department of Environmental Protection for funding and support. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
