Designing Dynamic Inductive Charging Infrastructures for Airport Aprons with Multiple Vehicle Types

In the effort to combat climate change, CO2 emissions of aviation sector must be reduced. The traffic caused by numerous types ground vehicles on airport aprons currently contributes those as typically operate with combustion engines, which is why an electrification has already begun. While stationary conductive charging current standard technology, dynamic wireless might attractive technological alternative, in particular for aprons; however, designing a network apron challenging task important technical and economic aspects. this paper, we propose model characterize problem, especially cases multiple sharing same network, such passenger buses baggage vehicles. numerical study inspired real-world airports, design networks subject service level constraints evaluate resulting structures via discrete-event simulation, thus, show way assess margin safety respect vehicle batteries’ state charge that induced spatial structure network.
