Abstract
To meet the requirement of the battery charging characteristics and electric vehicle interoperability, wide power range and wide voltage range are important for the wireless electric vehicle (EV) charging system. Hence, ensuring zero voltage switching (ZVS) and high efficiency over the wide operating range is a hot issue but not well resolved. To address the current state of research, an efficiency-oriented control strategy is proposed for LCC-S compensated Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) system to achieve minimum ZVS current over a wide voltage and power regulation range. Based on the accurate harmonic-considered time-domain model, a universal design method for system parameters under the worst ZVS current conditions within wide operation range is proposed. Then, the universal explicit expression at the unit voltage gain point is given. Moreover, based on the simplified fitting method of piecewise bi-quadratic interpolation (PBQI), minimum ZVS current and minimum non-active current can be ensured over the full output voltage and output power range.
