Info from another page? edit

Why is the page on Wireless energy transfer so much more informative on the general principles than this more general article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jpnewt (talkcontribs) 06:21, 3 May 2009 (UTC)Reply


Questions edit

What determine the changes in mutual inductance in a circuit?

Are electric toohbrushes using the same principle?

"A couple of companies (Splashpower, Edison-GE) are promising these inductive coupling products for 2006." -Anyone know the status of these?

AM radio antennas edit

I think the passive AM radio antennas should be mentioned here, or perhaps this page should re-direct to such a discussion. But because I'm an electronics/physics retard, I can't write the paragraph(s). All the best. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.236.15.132 (talk) 03:45, 6 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

In the language of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), antennas do not normally couple inductively but radiatively. Induction only happens if they are in each other's near field, in which case they act as a transformer anyway. IMHO reference to antenna coupling should be removed. Any objections? -- Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 13:21, 28 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Adding Inductive Coupling for Power Lines edit

I would like to edit this Wikipedia page because I think this Wikipedia page could be updated by adding a section on the inductive coupling due from different conductors within a phase on a power line. The explanation of the term could be improved with the example of bundled conductors in terms of inductive interference. It is interesting to understand why power lines seem to twist gradually if you are watching them out the window of a moving car. Maudesquad (talk) 05:00, 9 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Inductive coupling is a huge, enormous topic, and occurs all over in electrical engineering. This is a pretty small, specialized, example of coupling. My feeling is that this is not notable enough to include in this article. A more relevant, appropriate place for it would be power lines or transmission tower. --ChetvornoTALK 09:28, 9 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
