At CEATEC JAPAN 2015, Anritsu showed its “kQ product Real-time Measurement System for Wireless Power Transfer”
Responding to the compelling needs of the development workplace
“kQ product” is an index to show the performance of a wireless transfer of a power supply system. Anritsu’s measurement systems can measure the kQ product for a range of coupling-type systems in real-time such as magnetic coupling, electric field coupling and radio emission devices.
Anritsu commercialize this system based the research results of Professor Takashi Ohira, Director of Research Center for Future Vehicle City at Toyohashi University of Technology, which was originally commissioned from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Strategic Information and Communications R & D Promotion Project (SCOPE).
Conventionally power supply system development requires much trial and error for evaluation purposes. However, because this system enables real time measurement of the kQ product, designers can use it to uncover structural and dimensional improvement points early on, which greatly improve on developmental efficiency.
Anritsu’s Kiyoshi Kawauchi, Measurement Business Group Instrument Sales Division Deputy Director, 4th Business Unit, gave the following description:
“If you take the time, you can figure out the layout of a room by walking around it, even in if the room is pitch dark. However, you can grasp such information instantly if the light is on. Similar to this analogy, development of wireless power transmission systems is extremely troublesome because it is difficult to see things or movements. We designed this system for people involved in development of devices and maintenance of the wireless power supply systems of the future to make their jobs more efficient.”
Anritsu presents its 120-year history on the cutting edge of technology
This year is exactly 120 years since Anritsu was founded. Spanning decades, Anritsu exhibited a shining collection of its achievements on the cutting edge of electronics ― the world’s first commercial public radio telephone (1914), an AC bias wire recorder that uses a steel wire as magnetic recording media (1943), and Japan’s first broadcast radio receiver (1924). The Anritsu booth gives visitors a chance to experience both its long 120-year history and its cutting edge 2015 products at the same time.
