Summary A wireless power transmission link consisting of a transmitting and a receiving resonator wirelessly connected by means of N relay resonators is investigated, and a 2‐port network approach is proposed. The presented approach exploits the properties of periodic networks to derive useful closed‐form formulas that can be used to match the wireless energy link with respect to generic reference impedances.
