All the components in an automobile are powered by internal combustion engines and thereby reducing its mechanical efficiency. Battery in an automobile is charged with an internal combustion engine with the conversion of mechanical to electrical energy by an alternator also known as generator.
The process starts with a device such as a phone advertising wireless its availability power charging requirements.
The charger device pans and tilts to maximize this signal. The charging millimeter or microwave charging wave is heavily directional to limit charging beam spread.
