Far-Field Wireless Power Transfer and Energy Harvesting

By: Naoki Shinohara,Jiafeng Zhou

This book covers the next generation of power transfer in which power is transmitted via energy harvesting applications. It describes far-field Wireless Power Transfers (WPT) and why it is considered a special type of power transfer where power is transmitted through wireless power sources like radio waves, Wi-Fi, and TV broadcasting signals rather than utilizing near field wireless power sources. The book is the first of its kind to explain far-field WPT and energy harvesting technology from the same viewpoint. It provides you with an application-oriented review of how the latest WPT and energy harvesting tech can solve practical real-world problems. You will also get insight to R & D activities and regulations for commercial products in the future market. The book helps you understand the theory of far field WPT, and you will learn about the rising market for power transfer, factory automation (FA) and Internet-of-Things (IoT) sensors. With its comprehensive and unique coverage combining WPT and energy harvesting technology, this is an excellent resource for researchers, graduate students and engineers looking to further their knowledge on the theory of far field wireless power transfer.

Theory and Technology of Wireless Power Transfer

Inductive, Radio, Optical, and Supersonic Power Transfer

By: Naoki Shinohara,Nuno Borges Carvalho,Takehiro Imura,Tomoyuki Miyamoto,Kazuhiro Fujimori,Alessandra Costanzo

Shinohara and co-authors present a comprehensive and in-depth discussion of all current wireless power transfer (WPT) methods and meet the growing need for a detailed understanding of the advantages, disadvantages, and applications of each method. WPT is a game-changing technology, not only for IoT networks and sensors, but also for mobile chargers, long-flying drones, solar-powered satellites, and more, and the list of potential applications will continue to grow. Each author’s chapter is based on a minimum of 13 years and a maximum of over 30 years of research experience on selected WPT technologies to explain the theory and advantages and disadvantages of this to various applications. The book provides an insight into WPT theories and technologies, including inductive coupling for short-distance WPT, radio waves for long-distance WPT, optical WPT using lasers, supersonic WPT in water, and more. The characteristics of each WPT method are compared theoretically and technically. The differences of each WPT method are explained with reference to the different theories, techniques, and suitable applications. The reader will gain an understanding of the recent and future commercial market and regulations regarding WPT. They will be able to apply this knowledge to select the appropriate WPT method for their desired application. This book is appropriate for students, WPT researchers, and engineers in industry who are developing WPT applications.

Symmetrizing Syntax

Merge, Minimality, and Equilibria

By: Hiroki Narita,Naoki Fukui

Symmetrizing Syntax seeks to establish a minimal and natural characterization of the structure of human language (syntax), simplifying many facets of it that have been redundantly or asymmetrically formulated. Virtually all past theories of natural language syntax, from the traditional X-bar theory to the contemporary system of Merge and labeling, stipulate that every phrase structure is "asymmetrically" organized, so that one of its elements is always marked as primary/dominant over the others, or each and every phrase is labeled by a designated lexical element. The two authors call this traditional stipulation into question and hypothesize, instead, that linguistic derivations are essentially driven by the need to reduce asymmetry and generate symmetric structures. Various linguistic notions such as Merge, cyclic derivation by phase, feature-checking, morphological agreement, labeling, movement, and criterial freezing, as well as parametric differences among languages like English and Japanese, and so on, are all shown to follow from a particular notion of structural symmetry. These results constitute novel support for the contemporary thesis that human language is essentially an instance of a physical/biological object, and its design is governed by the laws of nature, at the core of which lies the fundamental principle of symmetry. Providing insights into new technical concepts in syntax, the volume is written for academics in linguistics but will also be accessible to linguistics students seeking an introduction to syntax.

Dialectics without Synthesis

Dialectics without Synthesis

Japanese Film Theory and Realism in a Global Frame

By: Naoki Yamamoto

Dialectics without Synthesis explores Japan’s active but previously unrecognized participation in the global circulation of film theory during the first half of the twentieth century. Examining a variety of Japanese theorists working in the fields of film, literature, avant-garde art, Marxism, and philosophy, Naoki Yamamoto offers a new approach to cinematic realism as culturally conditioned articulations of the shifting relationship of film to the experience of modernity. In this study, long-held oppositions between realism and modernism, universalism and particularism, and most notably, the West and the non-West are challenged through a radical reconfiguration of the geopolitics of knowledge production and consumption.
