Multiple Input Multiple Output Resonant Inductive WPT Link: Optimal Terminations for Efficiency Maximization

Energies

In this paper a general-purpose procedure for optimizing a resonant inductive wireless power transfer link adopting a multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) configuration is presented. The wireless link is described in a general–purpose way as a multi-port electrical network that can be the result of either analytical calculations, full–wave simulations, or measurements. An eigenvalue problem is then derived to determine the link optimal impedance terminations for efficiency maximization. A step-by-step procedure is proposed to solve the eigenvalue problem using a computer algebra system, it provides the configuration of the link, optimal sources, and loads for maximizing the efficiency. The main advantage of the proposed approach is that it is general: it is valid for any strictly–passive multi–port network and is therefore applicable to any wireless power transfer (WPT) link. To validate the presented theory, an example of application is illustrated for a link using three transmitt...

Optimal Terminations for a Single-Input Multiple-Output Resonant Inductive WPT Link

Energies

This paper analyzes a resonant inductive wireless power transfer link using a single transmitter and multiple receivers. The link is described as an (N+1)–port network and the problem of efficiency maximization is formulated as a generalized eigenvalue problem. It is shown that the desired solution can be derived through simple algebraic operations on the impedance matrix of the link. The analytical expressions of the loads and the generator impedances that maximize the efficiency are derived and discussed. It is demonstrated that the maximum realizable efficiency of the link does not depend on the coupling among the receivers that can be always compensated. Circuital simulation results validating the presented theory are reported and discussed.

A Comparison of Analytical Models for Resonant Inductive Coupling Wireless Power Transfer

— Recent research in wireless power transfer (WPT) using resonant inductive coupling has demonstrated very high efficiencies (above 40%) at large distances compared to the antenna dimensions, which has exponentially increased the number of potential applications of WPT. Since resonant inductive coupling is a very multidisciplinary field, different approaches have been proposed to predict the behaviour of these systems from physical theory of resonators, reflected load theory and the circuit point of view. However, the relation between these methods is still obscure. In this article, we compare the results of these models to find the efficiency of a Resonant Inductive Coupling WPT system under Steady-State sonditions and to analyze the relation between the optimal load values obtained from this perspectives and the ones obtained using impedance matching techniques.

Resonant Configuration Topology Exploration for Inductive Link Power Transfer

Indonesian Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2018

This paper investigates the performance of circuit topology used in wireless power applications to optimize the level of maximum efficiency. We analyse the series and the parallel resonant topologies for use in an inductive coupling link to derive power transfer efficiency expressions verified using MATLAB. We look into the two topologies into the link under resonant conditions for selectively supplying the device with power. The results are obtained analytically which are verified subsequently by MATLAB simulation. We then analyse the links to see how maximum power transfer efficiency for a given pair of coils can be achieved. The topology at a given tuning frequency is used for powering a selected resistive load. The method is presented using a given pair of coils simulated and the results agree well with the theoretical explanation and derivations.

Development of a Wireless Power Transfer System using Resonant Inductive Coupling

— Access to power is a fundamental requirement for the effective functioning of any electrical/electronic circuit. The conduit of transfer of power can be either physical (wires, cables etc.) of non-physical (i.e. wireless). Wireless power transfer is a broad term used to describe any means used to transmit power to electricity dependent systems and devices. In this paper, a wireless power transfer system is developed to provide an alternative to using power cords for electrical/electronic devices. With this technology, challenges like damaged or tangled power cords, sparking hazards and the extensive use of plastic and copper used in cord production are resolved and also the need for batteries in non-mobile devices is eliminated. In this system, electromagnetic energy is transmitted from a power source (transmitter) to an electrical load (receiver) via resonant inductive coupling. The performance achieved is a good indication that power can still be transmitted over a medium range. In addition, possible ways of improving the efficiency of the system are discussed.

Characterization of resonant coupled inductor in a wireless power transfer system

Journal of Electrical Systems and Information Technology, 2024

Wireless power transfer (WPT) has garnered significant interest as a potentially transformative technology in the energy sector, as it presents a novel approach to powering and charging devices. The functionality of this technology is predicated upon the utilization of electromagnetic coupling to facilitate the wireless transmission of energy between two entities. Despite the considerable potential, wireless power transfer (WPT) faces significant obstacles that restrict its practical feasibility. One notable challenge that arises is the decrease in power transfer efficiency as the distance between the transmitter and receiver increases. Moreover, the wireless power transfer (WPT) technology is further limited by its reliance on accurate alignment between the transmitting source and the receiving device, thereby posing challenges for its practical implementation. The issues present substantial obstacles to the widespread commercialization of wireless power transfer (WPT). This study seeks to improve the efficacy of power transfer by optimizing the resonance frequency of the power transfer in response to the challenges. By systematically manipulating various parameters including coil dimensions, input voltage levels, and operational frequency, a novel approach is proposed to enhance the efficiency of power transfer. The study additionally offers valuable insights regarding the correlation between the distance separating the coils and the efficiency of power transfer. The findings of this study offer a thorough empirical analysis and are supported by a strong theoretical framework, resulting in a substantial coefficient of determination (R 2 = 0.937118). This finding suggests that the linear regression model under consideration could account for approximately 93.7118 percent of the variability observed in the distance. The findings of this study establish a pathway toward enhanced and feasible wireless power technology, thereby establishing a robust basis for the prospective commercial implementation of wireless power transfer (WPT) systems.
