Abstract
This paper will firstly analyze the principles, components, applications of magnetic coupling and electromagnetic induction technologies. Then it conducts a systematic comparison in aspects like their performance, safety, cost, future trends, and so on. For example, Magnetic coupling technology can transfer energy efficiently and over medium distances, but it requires complex and expensive systems. The electromagnetic induction has simpler and lower-cost structures but needs high alignment precision and faces heat dissipation challenges. This paper also proposes a unique potential technology integration based on former research.
