Wireless power transmission (WPT), as we know, means transfer of energy or power from one medium to another without being connected through wires. Their ease-of-use and lower cost is what makes it popular among consumers. WPT devices are being increasingly becoming popular, especially in consumer electronics devices, industrial, automotive, defense, and healthcare sectors, thereby boosting the growth of WPT market.
