ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING VIA RF LOOPS TO AVOID NEED FOR PRECISE ALIGNMENT WITH WIRELESS CHARGING EQUIPMENT

A loop antenna in an electric vehicle receives energy wirelessly from a source external to the vehicle, such as from a Radio Frequency (RF) emitter. The use of RF loop antennas to both transmit and receive power greatly reduces the need to align the vehicle with charging station equipment.
