Abstract

Wireless charging systems are foreseen as an effective solution to improve the convenience and safety of conventional conductive chargers. As this technology has matured, recent broad applications of wireless chargers to electrified transportation have indicated a trend toward higher power, power density, modularity, and scalability of designs. In this article, commercial systems and laboratory prototypes are reviewed, focusing mostly on the advances in high-power wireless charging systems. The recent endeavors in magnetic pad designs, compensation networks, power electronics converters, control strategies, and communication protocols are illustrated. Both stationary and dynamic (in-motion) wireless charging systems are discussed, and critical differences in their designs and applications are emphasized. On that basis, the comparisons among different solutions and design considerations are summarized to present the essential elements and technology roadmap that will be necessary to support large-scale deployment of high-power wireless charging systems. The review is concluded with the discussion of several fundamental challenges and prospects of high-power wireless power transfer (WPT) systems. Foreseen challenges include utilization of advanced materials, electric and electromagnetic field measurement and mitigation, customization, communications, power metering, and cybersecurity.

Wireless Power Transfer

Multimedia

Wireless Power Transfer is an innovative approach using magnetic resonance coupling of air core transformers designed for today's growing plug-in electric vehicle market. This technology can provide a convenient, safe and flexible means to charge electric vehicles under stationary and dynamic conditions. Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEV) are burdened by the need for cable and plug charger, galvanic isolation of the on-board electronics, bulk and cost of this charger and the large energy storage system (ESS) packs needed. With a system where you have to physically plug in there are a number of occasions where the owner could very well forgetmore »« less

Overview of Electrically Conductive and Active Shielding for Wireless Power Transfer with a Polyphase Wireless Electric Vehicle Charging Study

Conference Lewis, Donovin D. ; Badewa, Oluwaseun A. ; Onar, Omer ; ...

The development and deployment of wireless power transfer (WPT) is increasing across industries including applications in healthcare, sensing and telecommunications, and electric vehicle charging due to its increased mobility and convenience. An important aspect of wireless power transfer is shielding to limit the intensity of electromagnetic fields (EMF) within external regions to protect users and nearby technology. Within this paper, the classifications and recent developments in shielding technologies are reviewed with discussion on potential benefits and drawbacks towards application for wireless charging of electric vehicles (EV). Additionally, a design study is proposed and simulated in 3D FEA for a novelmore »« less

Vehicular Integration of Wireless Power Transfer Systems and Hardware Interoperability Case Studies

Journal Article Onar, Omer ; Chinthavali, Madhu Sudhan ; Campbell, Steven ; ... - IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications

Several wireless charging methods are under development or available as an aftermarket option in the light-duty automotive market. However, there are not a sufficient number of studies detailing the vehicle integration methods, particularly a complete vehicle integration with higher power levels. This paper presents the design, development, implementation, and vehicle integration of wireless power transfer (WPT)-based electric vehicle (EV) charging systems for various test vehicles. Before having the standards effective, it is expected that WPT technology first will be integrated as an aftermarket retrofitting approach. Inclusion of this technology on production vehicles is contingent upon the release of the internationalmore »« less
