In designing a better Witricy device, there are several parameters that contribute to the improvement of efficiency. In this article, the substrate characteristics, which gaining less attention despite their potential for the improvement of Witricity performance are thoroughly studied. The characteristics such permittivity and loss tangent that very common in microwave design are investigated. The investigation has proven that RO 3010 substrate composed of ceramic-filled Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composites is the best material for the optimal Witricity performance, independent of the spiral coil’s number of turns. This is due to its high-energy storage capacity obtained from the real permittivity, and roughly low loss factor and tangent loss. Hence, the Rogers RO 3010 substrate is proposed in this study as it performs reliable 50% to 74% coupling efficiency with the varied number of spiral coil turns.
