Abstract

The paper deals with two models of Tesla’s propagation concept of wireless transmission of energy. A transmission line (TL) approximation and antenna model approaches are both implemented to analyze the Tesla’s propagation concept. The Tesla’s propagation path through the ground has been represented by an equivalent conductor excited at one end by the current source. The current distribution and the voltage have been calculated analytically. In particular, the voltage is calculated from standard TL equation and Generalized Telegrapher’s equation formulation. Results for the voltage and generated power are presented in the paper.
