Coordinated Source Control for Output Power Stabilization and Efficiency Optimization in WPT Systems.

This paper presents the framework for the applications of double-source wireless systems in charging for movable electronic devices. To acquire the real-time mutual inductances between the receiving coil and the transmitting coils, a detection strategy on the basis of primary parameters (currents and voltages) is introduced, which can replace the wireless communications between the receiving side and the transmitting side. Coordinated control of two source voltages is employed to deal with the power fluctuation of load, which is caused by load position variations. In specific, the constraint of two source voltages, which can maintain the output power stable, is derived. Based on these feasible combinations of source voltages, numerical calculations are further carried out to identify the optimized voltage combination, which can achieve high power transfer efficiency. Finally, an experimental prototype is built up and the results show that the proposed coordinated control strategy can minimize power fluctuation and maintain relative high efficiency at the same time.
