This paper provides a special flexible graphene film based capacitive wireless power transfer (FGCPT) system for powering biomedical sensors of smart wearable devices. The graphene conductive material is flexible, transparent, highly conductive, and impermeable to most gases and liquids. Generally, the coupling structure of capacitive wireless power transfer (CPT) system is consisted of metal plates. However, it is hard to use for the biomedical sensors as the low power density and big volume. The shape of graphene conductive material could be easily built and changed according to the application requirements. In this paper, the power supply of biomedical sensing system could be accomplished by a single graphene film which is acted as the receiver of FGCPT system. The 200 mW power level is achieved with the maximum 9 V output voltage. The theory and calculation are verified by the simulated and experimental results.
