For a multiload wireless power transfer (WPT) system, it has always been a challenge to maintain constant output power with constant efficiency for each load when the coupling conditions change. Besides, the unbalanced power distribution and cross-coupling among loads are also the key issues. In order to solve these problems, a novel multiload WPT system combining the parity-time (PT) symmetry principle and time-sharing control strategy is proposed. First, the multiload PT-symmetric WPT (PT-WPT) system with single natural resonant frequency is modeled and analyzed based on the circuit model. Then, a multiload PT-WPT system with time-sharing control strategy is constructed by adding a controllable resonant capacitor array at the transmitter. The time-sharing control strategy is realized by periodically turning on/off a controllable resonant capacitor selectively, which enables a single transmitter to supply power to multiple loads with different natural resonant frequencies, and each load realizes PT transmission characteristics. Further, using the time-sharing control strategy, the power distribution among multiple loads is realized by only controlling the duty cycle of each load. Finally, two dual-load PT-WPT experiments are designed and carried out. Experimental results show that each load can maintain constant output power with constant transfer efficiency about 90% in a wide coupling range, and realize power distribution at desired values simultaneously.
