Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.WPT system performances highly depend on the misalignment scenarios of the transmitter or the receiver coil. In this contribution, the authors analyze the effect of the misalignment influencing factors of the integrated WPT-PLC system receiving coil on the system performances. The simulations and experimental analysis are based on power efficiency and channel capacity metrics. The simulations are performed using finite element calculations in COMSOL Multiphysics and Advanced Design System (ADS) from Keysight technology. By analyzing the results, maximum transferred power is reached under resonance conditions. For instance, the calculated efficiencies versus the misalignment cases of the WPT-PLC system varies (η = 86% to 60%) when d = [3 cm to 7 cm], s = [3 cm to 9 cm], and for a tilt angle θ ≤ 20 deg, while the optimal data rate C(bps) is achieved while appealing different data access points and under reasonable SNR value.136839278engbandwidthdata communicationdata ratedronesfinite element simulationinductive couplingmisalignmentmultiphysics simulationUAVwireless power transferControl and Systems EngineeringSignal ProcessingHardware and ArchitectureComputer Networks and CommunicationsElectrical and Electronic Engineeringjournal article10.3390/electronics11081249https://www.scopus.com/pages/publications/85128358538
