Abstract

[OBJECT] There is provided a wireless power transmission system capable of transmitting power efficiently even when it is rotated.[ORGANIZATION] A power transmission device has a first and a second electrode (a center electrode 311 and an annular electrode 312) each having a rotationally symmetrical shape with respect to a common center axis, a first and a second connection line (connection lines 315, 316), and a first inductor to (inductor 313, 314). A power reception device has a third and a fourth electrode (center electrode 321 and annular electrode 322) each having a rotationally symmetrical shape with respect to a common center axis, a third and a fourth connection line (connection lines 325, 326), and a second inductor. The electrodes of the power transmission device and the power reception device are disposed to oppose each other across a distance of λ/2π or less as a near field, and a resonance frequency of a coupler constituted of the first and the second electrode and the first inductor and a resonance frequency of a coupler constituted of the third and the fourth electrode and the second inductor (inductor 323, 324) are set to be substantially equal.
