A Review on Wireless Charging Methods, Coil Design, Applications, Optimization Techniques and Challenges of Electric Vehicle

Abstract

This article provides an up-to-date overview of wireless charging technologies, coupler pad design, standards, and optimization strategies. First, the key qualities of an electric vehicle (EV) are explained. Wireless charging approaches and the kind of charging system that depends on vehicle location during charging have been described in detail. The many varieties of coupler pad designs are presented using a graphic and a table. The topics of application and standards are covered. Following that, some of the most often utilized optimization approaches for EV charging station sizing and location are examined. A comparative analysis of the optimization of various optimization techniques has been outlined in tabular form. The paper gave researchers and scholars a thorough understanding of the fundamentals of WPT and its mechanism of operation, with a focus on its explicit application in EVs.
