Abstract
A wireless power system for powering a television includes a source resonator, configured to generate an oscillating magnetic field, and at least one television component attached to at least one device resonator, wherein the at least one device resonator is configured to wirelessly receive power from the source resonator via the oscillating magnetic field when the distance between the source resonator and the at least one device resonator is more than 5 cm, and wherein at least one television component draws at least 10 Watts of power.

(canceled)
A wireless power receiver, comprising:
- a first inductive element comprising a planar coil occupying a first plane and having first and second terminals;
- a first capacitive element connected to the first terminal;
- a second capacitive element connected to the first capacitive element at a third terminal and to the second terminal;
- a rectifier connected to the second terminal and third terminal such that an oscillating magnetic field will induce a current in the first inductive element, resulting in a voltage across the input of the rectifier;
- a communications modulation circuit;
- and
- a layer of magnetic material centered over the planar coil in a second plane parallel to the first plane.
