Nikola Tesla: 5G network could realise his dream of wireless electricity, a century after experiments failed At the turn of the twentieth century, electrical engineer Nikola Tesla began work on a wireless electricity network.
Because 5G relies upon a dense network of masts and a powerful series of antenna, it’s possible that the same infrastructure, with some tweaks, could beam power to small devices.
This is why 5G masts are more densely clustered than 4G masts.
Being able to beam power directly to these IoT devices will encourage the move to far more efficient manufacturing practices.
That said, this technology is in its infancy.
But if engineers can find more efficient ways to beam electricity through the air, it may well be that Nikola Tesla’s dream of wireless power could be realised – over 100 years since his attempts failed.
