Introduction: What is the Need?
• There is need for an efficient method for transferring large power levels over moderate distances to hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) in the near future:
First to parked vehicles,
Then expand to opportunity charging, and
Eventually to highway charging while driving.
• Loosely coupled resonant mode transformers have the potential to accomplish this.
• Magnetic resonance coupling for wireless power transfer is termed WPT.

Introduction: Near Term Vision for WPT
• Electric vehicle charging must be:
• Safe, compact and efficient in order to be convenient for customers
• Power levels commensurate with application:
• 3 kW to 7 kW residential and garage; 60 kW to >100 kW on-road dynamic
WPT alignment tolerance should be under closed loop DSRC control between
the transmit coil and vehicle mounted capture coil.

Background: Barriers to Success
• Efficiency
– across cascade of components >90%
– coil-to-coil ~98%
• Meet international field emission standards (ICNIRP and ARPANSA)*
• Efficient high frequency power inverter (20 – 140 kHz)
• Implement vehicle to infrastructure (V2I) communications compliant with DOT recommendations for DSRC

* The Radiation Protection Series is published by the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency
(ARPANSA)
Background: Measures of Success
• Interoperability
– Any OEM vehicle with any WPT charger
– Means coil size fixed, operating frequency fixed, alignment tolerance & emissions fixed and communications fixed.
• Safety and emissions
– Transparent to vehicle occupants
• Communications
– DSRC following U.S. DOT recommendations for V2I
– Private and secure

Approach: Analytical Perspective
For S-P resonant coil system the operating frequencies shift due to:
• Degree of receiver coil loading (charging power demanded)
• Coefficient of coupling between coils (vehicle receiver coil to transmit pad gap)
• Tuning of various receiver coils relative to transmit coil tuning.
Coupling mode theory facilitates
understanding the fundamentals of WPT
and what parameters are key to optimized
performance.
During vehicle ESS charging the presence
of a dc potential at the secondary forces the
current and voltage responses to be very
nonlinear: fzmx to fzmn transitions
11 Managed by UT-Battelle for the U.S. Department of Energy
Approach: Analytical Perspective
Resonance shifting is not an issue for stationary wireless charging, but
• For on-road dynamic charging is an issue
• Will require dynamic load tracking and inverter control using DSRC Illustration of ideal cases: k= 0.3, 0.22, 0.15, 0.1 and RL=2.5
Then, k=0.22 and RL= 5, 2.5, 1.8, 0.8
For a given value of coupling coefficient, k, the maximum power transfer occurs
when the reflected load matches the surge impedance of the system.

Future Work: Design Considerations
• Power inverter must match the WPT network
Analysis of efficiency considered inverter kVA/kW requirement
Off resonance kVA/kW rating can be excessive
Therefore, inverter must maintain close tracking of coupled power factor
• Further study of secondary rectification and filtering stage must be performed.
• ORNL internal power inverter development supports the WPT systems project
• Industrial partner would greatly accelerate progress in WPT for Level 2 stationary charging case.
• Transition from laboratory to in-vehicle
