Among them, solar power generation market shows rapid growth. However, due to shadows caused by elevation angle variation of the sun according to season, solar panels should be installed with certain distance between each other in succession, which causes wide unused space. To solve this problem, plane-type reflectors are installed between solar panels. In this paper, the curved reflector type is newly proposed, which can increase the intensity of sunlight incident on the solar panel at high elevation angle of the sun. Experimental results showed that the average sunlight intensity ratio with respect to elevation angle of the sun for the solar panels with no reflector, plane-type reflector, and the proposed curved reflector is 1:1.20:1.23, respectively.

The superiority of dipole coils for a-long-distance power delivery over loop coils with same configuration of square core, in general, is verified by comparing magnetizing inductance between primary and secondary coils. Series-parallel resonant circuits are used to achieve higher load voltage than the series-series scheme. Contrary to conventional IPTSs or coupled magnetic resonance systems, quality factor Q is set as low as 100, which is, moreover, fixed for guaranteeing frequency tolerance. An optimum number of turns of the secondary coil is derived theoretically and verified by experiments, where a prototype of narrow dipole coils with 2m-length were used to deliver 11.1 W power up to 7m-distance at a very low frequency of 20 kHz.

This system achieves wireless charging independent of the position and direction of its receiving side by means of two transmitting coils installed in one ferrite core structure. These direct (D) and quadrature (Q) coils generate a uniform rotating magnetic field inside the vehicle. In the proposed system, a double-sided LCC circuit topology is applied to each of the D and Q coils to provide load-independent current sources. The parameters of the LCC compensation circuits are determined to guarantee zero voltage switching for the switches of the high-frequency inverter and to limit the inverter output current simultaneously. A detail analysis of the operation and design of the proposed system was carried out, and its feasibility was verified with experiments for 1 W level of power receiving within 30 cm distance between transmitting and receiving coils at 280 kHz.

The proposed converter enables ZVZCS operation for wide operating ranges of duty cycle, load power, and input voltage by adopting snubber circuit, which consists of two capacitors and three diodes. Its ZVZCS operation does not require cumbersome voltage or current sensing and voltage/current stress of active components does not exceed the order of input voltage. To minimize the time consumed in ZVZCS, SiC MOSFET with short rise and fall time is used as an active switch. A detailed analysis for CCM operation of the converter and its design steps are shown. Experimental verification has been conducted with 300 W prototype with maximum efficiency of 98.4 %.
