Abstract

Discloses is a system for the wireless transmission of energy and/or signals between spatially-separated regions with no electrically-conductive connection, the conversion of energy and/or signals into other forms of energy and/or forms of signal, and the application and/or detection of same in at least one peripheral region of said system. The system allows a wireless transmission of energy between at least two spatially-separated regions without an electrically-conductive connection, energy being supplied to at least one of these regions, transmitted to at least one additional region in a wireless manner, converted on demand into other forms of energy, and applied in a peripheral region of said system. Signals can be transmitted at the same time as energy is being transmitted.
