Double-Coil Dynamic Shielding Technology for Wireless Power Transmission in Electric Vehicles

Dynamic Charging of Electric Vehicles by Wireless Power Transfer

I N RECENT TIMES, wireless power charging of electric vehicles (EV) has gained huge attentions. Static wireless charging for EVs has seamlessly been achieved using the inductive power transfer (IPT) technology. More recently, dynamic (also termed in-motion) wireless charging with IPT technology has been successfully demonstrated for electric mass transportation means like electric trains, trams...

An Autonomous Coil Alignment System for the Dynamic Wireless Charging of Electric Vehicles to Minimize Lateral Misalignment

This paper proposes an autonomous coil alignment system (ACAS) for electric vehicles (EVs) with dynamic wireless charging (DWC) to mitigate the reduction in received power caused by lateral misalignment between the source and load coils. The key component of the ACAS is a novel sensor coil design, which can detect the load coil’s left or right position relative to the source coil by observing t...

A New Framework for Advancement of Power Management Strategies in Hybrid Electric Vehicles

Power management strategies play a key role in the design process of hybrid electric vehicles. Electric Assist Control Strategy (EACS) is one of the popular power management strategies for hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). The present investigation proposes a new framework to advance the EACS. Dynamic Programming method is applied to an HEV model in several drive cycles, and as a result, some op...

Route Optimization of Electric Vehicles based on Dynamic Wireless Charging

One of the barriers to adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs) is the anxiety around the limited driving range. Recent proposals have explored charging EVs on the move, using dynamic wireless charging which enables power exchange between the vehicle and the grid while the vehicle is moving. In this article, we focus on the intelligent routing of EVs in need of charging so that they can make most ef...
