A hybrid compensation-based misalignment tolerant wireless power transfer system for e-mobility

Abstract

The thesis focuses on developing a hybrid compensation with a phase shift control strategy, aiming for misalignment tolerant constant current/constant voltage (CC/CV) charging through a wireless power transfer (WPT) system for e-mobility. The thesis proposes a hybrid multi-resonant compensation network (LCC-LCC and LCC-S) for CC/CV charging during perfect alignment, controlled by the secondary side only. Additionally, the thesis introduces a phase shift control technique in the inverter to maintain the corresponding CC and CV charging mode during the misalignment up to 100 mm between primary and secondary coils. Initially, the theoretical analysis of the proposed system is described in detail. Then, simulation results for 3.7 kW and 270 W peak load were carried out in MATLAB Simulink. Lastly, experimental testing and validation were conducted for the proposed hybrid compensated system for 270 W peak load, applicable to the E-bike. The experimental results show good consistency with theoretical and simulation analysis.
