Dynamic Wireless Charging of Electric Vehicle: Misalignment Detection using Sensor Coils

Abstract

Precipitous development and commercialization of Electric Vehicles (EVs) become state of art technology. Likewise, demand for rapid feeding operation like Dynamic Wireless Charging (DWC) system is enhancing. Nevertheless, drawback in the form of misalignment between charging coil and receiver side attenuates standing of the DWC. Many studies were conducted to accomplish the throughput of this technology based on various aspects. In some articles, coil shape is the primary aim, while others concern with wireless power transfer (WPT) circuit. The fundamental aim of this project is to elevate the efficiency of the DWC by eliminating misalignment issue between source and load coils. It will cover background of the DWC with moderate literature review followed by own proposed methodology. The suggested topology was first simulated in the ANSYS Electronics software, then PSIM was applied to test is in hardware. Obtained results used in the overall system simulation show promising outputs.
