Magnetic Antenna Resonator for Induced Current

The patent transitions from a planar winding structure to a three-dimensional folded structure. The conductive member is folded back on itself multiple times within a compact area, creating vertical stacking of turns rather than horizontal expansion. This dimensional change allows achieving high turn counts (e.g., 10+ turns) without proportionally increasing the footprint area, thus resolving the contradiction between induced current and antenna area.

The antenna structure employs nested folding where the conductive member is folded back within its own bounding area. Each fold creates additional turns that are spatially nested within the same planar envelope, allowing multiple turns to occupy a compact space. This nesting approach enables high turn density without linearly increasing the area, maintaining both induced current and area constraints.

The patent resolves this contradiction by exploiting the third dimension through vertical folding. Instead of reducing turns to fit area, the structure folds conductive material vertically within the compact area, creating multiple turns in the Z-direction. This allows maintaining high turn counts (e.g., 10+ turns) within a small footprint, thereby preserving induced current while achieving compact dimensions suitable for modern electronic entities.

The conductive member is implemented as a flexible thin conductive layer that can be folded and bent without breaking. This flexibility enables the creation of compact folded structures within limited space. The thin film approach allows multiple folds to be packed into a small area while maintaining electrical continuity, thus achieving both reduced area and maintained induced current through efficient spatial utilization.
