1. A wireless charging system, comprising:
- a secondary resonant coil located within a device and positioned to wirelessly receive electrical power from a primary resonant coil that has a resonant frequency that is substantially the same as a resonant frequency of the secondary resonant coil, wherein the primary resonant coil is located outside of the device and is operatively coupled to a source of electricity; and
a conversion element coupled to the secondary resonant coil that converts the electrical power received by the secondary resonant coil into converted electrical power, wherein the converted electrical power is operatively coupled to a load located within the device to thereby charge the device.

Abstract
A method and system for efficient distribution of power using wireless means, and a system and method for wireless power distribution to provide electric devices, such as vehicles with a way to continuously and wirelessly collect, use and charge their power systems and thereby use the transmitted power for operation. The system and method allows a hybrid, simplified and less costly way to charge devices, such as vehicles so that the devices continuously operate while charging/recharging.
