Alliance Announces Testing, Certification for Resonant Wireless Charging

AirFuel Alliance is launching an automated test system and certification program to support the AirFuel Resonant wireless charging standard. The program paves the way for deployment of AirFuel Resonant-certified products, said Sanjay Gupta, alliance president, Thursday. The test systems, a multiyear initiative, are the final piece of a project to have the AirFuel Resonant standard use a common set of magnetic field parameters to define interoperability between power transmit and power receiver units, said the alliance. Testing labs TTA and Gyeongbuk Technopark are equipped to validate product performance and provide interoperability certifications, it said.
