Blind-Zone-Free Metal Object Detection for Wireless EV Chargers Employing DD Coils by Passive Electromagnetic Sensing

Niu, Songyan, Niu, Shuangxia, Zhang, Cheng, Jian, Linni·2023·IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics

Abstract

Metal object detection (MOD) is crucial for the safe operation of ground-assembled wireless electric vehicle charging (WEVC) systems. Electromagnetic sensing by passive coils is a reliable MOD method for high-power applications, such as WEVC. Previous designs of sensing coils are mainly targeted at the systems with unpolarized coils (e.g., circular coils). However, they are not suitable for those with DD-coil-coupling engaged due to the fundamentally different field pattern. To fix this problem, in this article, a field-oriented design of sensing coils is proposed, which mainly aims at blind-zone elimination while maintaining high sensitivity and cost-effectiveness. The blind zone arising from axial symmetry of the field is removed by size-modulated C-shape coil units. And removing the central blind spot relies on an extra patch coil by utilizing the characteristic of parallel magnetic flux generated by DD coils. Tested by 13 positions (central blind spot excluded) where MOs might exist using a 3-kW WEVC prototype, the optimized sensing coils completely remove the axial blind zones when 50 mV is set as the threshold voltage. Moreover, for the central blind spot, the proposed patch coil can stably identify MO intrusion no matter if the prototype operates in light-load or heavy-load conditions.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The use of low-loss silicon carbide (SiC) or gallium nitride (GaN) power switches can mitigate switching losses and enhance overall system efficiency in DAB converters.

    “While a large number of switches may lead to higher switching losses, the use of low-loss silicon carbide (SiC) [89] or gallium nitride (GaN) power switches [90] can effectively mitigate these losses and enhance overall system efficiency.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
