Abstract

A wireless power transfer device and method including a first coil of wire having a first winding to receive electrical current and emit a first electromagnetic field, a second coil of wire having a second winding to receive electrical current and emit a second electromagnetic field, the second electromagnetic field weaker than the first electromagnetic field. A combined electromagnetic field of the first electromagnetic field and the second electromagnetic field to transmit power wirelessly through a first external surface of the wireless power transfer device to a receiving device, and decay faster over distance through a second external surface of the wireless power transfer device than through the first external surface.
