Abstract:
A method of fabricating a near-field antenna for transmitting radio frequency (RF) power transmission signals includes selecting a set of dimensions for one or more cutouts to be defined through a conductive plate of the near-field antenna. The conductive plate has opposing first and second planar surfaces. The method includes forming the one or more cutouts through the first and second surfaces of the conductive plate in a predefined arrangement. Each of the one or more cutouts has the set of dimensions. The method includes coupling an insulator to the first surface of the conductive plate, and coupling a feed element to the insulator.
