Master’s Thesis on Wireless Energy Transfer Using Magnetic Resonance

Innovative Research Presented by Graduate Student Ahmed Iyad Ibrahim

On December 21, 2017, Ahmed Iyad Ibrahim defended his Master’s thesis titled “Wireless Energy Transfer Using Magnetic Resonance Coupling” in the Dijla Hall of the Department of Electrical Engineering.

The research outlined theoretical design steps and practical simulations to achieve optimal wireless energy transfer efficiency. Using MATLAB and HFSS simulation tools, the study determined ideal coil dimensions and configurations, achieving a transmission efficiency of 74.42% in air at a frequency of 13.56 MHz.

The defense panel included:

• Assoc. Prof. Dr. Sinan Majid Abdul-Sattar (Chair)
• Assoc. Prof. Dr. Hossam Abdul-Ali (Member)
• Assist. Prof. Dr. Saad Mutasher Abbas (Member)
• Assist. Prof. Dr. Ahmed Saadoun Ezzedine (Supervisor and Member).

The thesis was approved with minor revisions, and the student received a distinction rating.
