1. A wireless power transmission system comprising:

  • a power transmission device comprising;

    an AC power generation circuit configured to generate AC currents;

    a plurality of first circuits connected to the AC power generation circuit; and

    a plurality of power transmission resonators each connected to different one of the plurality of first circuits and configured to generate magnetic fields based on the AC currents received through the plurality of first circuits; and

    a power reception device comprising;

    a plurality of power reception resonators configured to receive AC power through magnetic field coupling to the plurality of power transmission resonators;

    a plurality of second circuits each connected to different one of the plurality of power reception resonators; and

    a rectifier circuit connected to the plurality of second circuits and configured to convert voltages of the AC power received through the plurality of second circuits to DC voltages, wherein;

    phases of the AC currents generated by the AC power generation circuit are shifted from each other,the plurality of first circuits each has a first ABCD-parameters including a parameter A, a parameter B, a parameter C and a parameter D, andthe plurality of second circuits each has a second ABCD-parameters including a parameter A, a parameter B, a parameter C and a parameter D, wherein;

    the parameter A is an open-circuit output reverse voltage gain,the parameter B is a short-circuit output transfer impedance,the parameter C is an open output transfer admittance,the parameter D is a short-circuit output reverse current gain,an absolute value of the parameter A of the first ABCD-parameters of each of the plurality of first circuits is less than 1,an absolute value of the parameter D of the second ABCD-parameters of each of the plurality of second circuits is less than 1, anda difference of amplitudes of the AC currents in the power transmission resonators is suppressed even when a difference of coupling coefficients between the power transmission resonators and the power reception resonators varies.
