Basic experimental study on helical antennas of wireless power transfer for Electric Vehicles by using magnetic resonant couplings

Abstract

Wireless power transfer is required for the diffusion of Electric Vehicles (EVs) because it makes possible the process of automatically charging EVs. The technology of wireless power transfer requires three main elements: large air gaps, high efficiency and a large amount of power. Though, there has been no such technology, recently, the technology of electromagnetic resonant couplings was proposed and named WiTricity. With this technology there are large air gaps, high efficiency and large amounts of power. In this paper, the feasibility of wireless power transfer for EVs by electromagnetic resonance coupling is studied. We studied small sized antennas that can be equipped on the bottom of a vehicle and we studied the electrical characteristics of the antenna with equivalent circuits, electromagnetic analysis and experimentation. The length of the air gaps between a transmitting antenna and a receiving antenna affect resonance frequencies. The resonance frequency changes from two to one depending on the length of the air gap. Until a certain distance, maximum efficiencies are not changed. Large air gaps are weak couplings. In a weak coupling at resonance, magnetic resonance couplings can transfer energy with high efficiency. The specification results at high power are proposed. In this paper, the feasibility of wireless power transfer with large air gaps and high efficiency by small sized antennas that can be equipped on the bottom of EVs is proposed.

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.
