Abstract
- Recently, omnidirectional wireless power transfer (WPT) systems have been studied intensely, due to their improved flexibility as compared to their planar counterparts. The LCCL-LC resonant converter topology is selected due to its current source characteristics in this article. The system frequency is pushed to megahertz (MHz) to increase the spatial charging freedom. In a megahertz WPT system, the reactance of the full bridge rectifier can no longer be neglected; therefore, an analytical model of the full bridge rectifier input impedance is built. Furthermore, zero-voltage switching (ZVS) of the switching devices is essential in reducing the switching loss and noise in a megahertz system. A design methodology of the LCCL-LC circuit is proposed to achieve the ZVS operation in the case of one transmitter and one receiver. Then, the ZVS analysis is extended to the scenario of multiple transmitter coils and one receiver coil. Finally, a 6.78-MHz wireless charging system is built according to the proposed design methodology. Experimental results validate the accuracy of the ZVS analysis, and the ZVS operation is well achieved under different coupling and load conditions. The peak system efficiency of 82% at 5-W output power is achieved. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
