Abstract
This thesis involves the development of relationships between important transfer system. quantities in Efforts have a transcutaneous power been made to develop relationships between the efficiency of transcutaneous power transfer, duty cycle of the source voltage signal, input impedance of the transmitter and primary power factor. A prototype of a transcutaneous power transfer system was built with a synchronously tuned series in: series out configuration at 2 MHz to demonstrate changes in the efficiency of transcutaneous power with changes in the primary power factor. Theoretical and experimental work have been done to demonstrate changes in the primary power factor with changes in the duty cycle of the source voltage signal.
