Abstract

Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) technology has been developing rapidly in recent years. Electric Vehicles (EVs), as an emerging mode of transport, also benefit from the WPT technology. Various EV manufacturers have different coupling structures, which can lead to incompatibility problems between the coils. Meanwhile, due to the human parking, misalignment between the transmitting and receiving coils may occur. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a reconfigurable bipolar coil structure with both interoperability and misalignment tolerance. A 200-W experimental prototype is built, which can achieve 84.33% and 84.76% system transmission efficiency with vertical and horizontal bipolar coils. The effectiveness of the proposed reconfigurable bipolar coil is finally verified by comparing the computational and experimental results.
