内容简介：
Although wireless power transmission was first demonstrated by Tesla more than 100 years ago, not until recent years did it attract enormous research interests. This presentation reviews the history, existing technologies, and potential development of wireless power transmission. Also, our research efforts on wireless power transmission will be presented. Specifically, our scheme is based on "retro-reflective beamforming." The major merit of our scheme is that, wireless power transmission is augmented by radar tracking. Wireless power transmission is initiated by pilot signals sent from mobile/portable devices; and in response to the pilot signals, the wireless charger delivers directional power beams to the devices. Some of our preliminary studies and findings will be discussed in the presentation.
报告人简介：
Mingyu Lu received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in electrical engineering from Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, in 1995 and 1997 respectively, and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2002. From 1997 to 2002, he was a research assistant at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. From 2002 to 2005, he was a postdoctoral research associate at the Electromagnetics Laboratory in the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He was an assistant professor with the Department of Electrical Engineering, the University of Texas at Arlington from 2005 to 2012. He joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, West Virginia University Institute of Technology as an assistant professor in 2012. His current research interests include wireless power transmission, radar systems, microwave remote sensing, antenna design, and computational electromagnetics. He was the recipient of the first prize award in the student paper competition of the IEEE International Antennas and Propagation Symposium, Boston, MA in 2001. He served as the chair of Antennas and Propagation Society of IEEE Fort Worth Chapter from 2006 to 2011.
