In this contribution the authors investigate the possibility of improving the performances of a coupled Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) - Power Line Communications (PLC) system in case the WPT system is characterised by a four coils structure. The main idea is to use the so-called transmitting and receiving coil (the two "inner" coils) as access point for the PLC modems and use the drive and load loops (the two "outer" coils) as usual access point for power transfer. The simulations results show that a wider band for communication is achieved with respect the previously proposed system.
