The proposed device consists of two separate resonator systems (coil & magnet), which each comply with their respective resonance frequencies, but which, together, give an extended bandwidth. Basic analytical models are derived and a numerical model is implemented in MATLAB-Simulink. The predictive results indicate that for a low damping system, there is a maximum of 75 improvement of the induced voltage within the Intermediate Region which lies between the two resonator frequencies. Nonetheless, the improvement of the induced voltage in the region does come with some sacrificing of the outputs at the side frequencies, which is highly susceptible to the value of the damping factor of the respective resonators. © 2014 IEEE. date: 2014 publisher: IEEE Computer Society official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84906337162&doi=10.1109%2fICIAS.2014.6869443&partnerID=40&md5=7281124003e7df82b7ed51a0e3c36acc id_number: 10.1109/ICIAS.2014.6869443 full_text_status: none publication: 2014 5th International Conference on Intelligent and Advanced Systems: Technological Convergence for Sustainable Future, ICIAS 2014 - Proceedings place_of_pub: Kuala Lumpur refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781479946549 citation: Ooi, B.L. and Aziz, A.R.A. and Gilbert, J.M.
