THE TRUE WIRELESS ENERGY TRANSMISSION-RECEPTION PRIZE:
$250.00 to the first person documenting long range energy
transmission using the Tesla wirelessmethod described in U.S.
Patent No. 645,576, SYSTEM OF TRANSMISSION OF ELECTRICALENERGY,
dated March 20, 1900.PURPOSE:To demonstrate the system's efficacy
on a small scale, the cash prize of $250.00 has beenestablished, to
be given to the first person documenting the nonradiative
transmission andreception of electrical energy over a distance of
10 or more times the free space wavelength ofthe operating
frequency, hereinafter referred to as the "wavelength" using a
Tesla coil transmitterand a Tesla coil receiver.There is no minimum
power transfer requirement, just that which is needed to activate a
detector,sensitive device, or other receiving instrument.
It must be demonstrated that some mechanism other than or in
addition to ordinary radio wavesis involved in the transfer of
energy between the Tesla coil transmitting station and the Tesla
coilreceiving station. This is to be done using a radio receiver
that is tunable to the Tesla coiltransmitter's operating frequency,
and that is more sensitive to radio waves than it is to the
non-radiating electromagnetic field energy associated with the
Tesla coil transmitter. The radioreceiver's antenna must be
configured in such a way so that it is more sensitive to radio
wavesthan it is to the nonradiative emissions of the Tesla coil
transmitter. Tuned air core magneticloop, and tuned ferrite core
magnetic loop antennas are acceptable types. The vertical
1/2-wavedipole antenna, with or without loading coils, suspended
wavelength or more above the groundis also an acceptable type.
Grounded monopole and low-counterpoise radio antennas are
notacceptable types. See WIRELESS ENERGY TRANSMISSION INTERIM
SUMMARYSTATEMENT for additional words about the experimental
protocol.DEFINITIONS:Nonradiative energy transfer Energy transfer
between a wireless transmitter and a wirelessreceiver not involving
ordinary radio waves.Radio wave A far-field electromagnetic wave
that is no longer associated with its source, havingits E- and
H-field components in phase.
RULES:1. The operating frequency shall be between 5 kHz and 175
kHz.2. Both the transmitter and receiver shall have a size defined
as being able to fit inside a vertical
cylindrical volume the height and diameter of which are limited
to .02 x wavelength.3. The transmission distance will be measured
between the vertical centerline of the Tesla coiltransmitter and
Tesla coil receiving transformer, and must be at least 10 x
wavelength.4. Amplification, regeneration, heterodyning, and/or any
other receiving technique that might bedeveloped is allowed.

5. The detected energy shall be observed for a period of 60
seconds or more with a 50% dutycycle, and be demonstrated to
originate from the source by 20 or more interruptions of
thetransmitted signal.
6. Correlation between the transmitted and received signals
shall be by cellular telephone or anyother FCC type-approved
wireless telecommunications device.7. A ground wire between the
transmitter and receiver is not allowed.8. The transmitter and
receiver must be grounded to the earth within the cylindrical
volume.9. The Tesla coil transmitter and the Tesla coil receiving
transformer may not be connected toany common power utility ground
network, or common water or gas distribution system.10. A
white-paper fully documenting the work shall be created and
published on the World WideWeb, and an abstract of said white-paper
containing a link to the full paper shall be posted on theTesla
Coil Mailing List [TCML; [email protected] ].
