Abstract
Vehicle-to-vehicle dynamic wireless charging (V2V-DWC) represents a modern advancement in electrified transportation, where a specialized charging vehicle delivers power to another vehicle on the move. The rising popularity of this technology can be attributed to the gradual advancements in energy storage technologies and the scarcity of plug-in charging infrastructure. V2V wireless power transfer provides a solution for electric vehicles (EVs) to recharge their batteries while in transit. The existing literature confirms the empirical validation of this concept through analytical and experimental studies, yet the challenge of misalignment remains insufficiently explored. Achieving optimal power transfer in V2V systems necessitates precise alignment of the inductive coils. Lateral misalignment (LTM) occurs due to the deviation of the coils from the proper alignment, leading to significant energy losses. Additionally, the development of effective controllers to address the V2V misalignment problem remains inadequate. This study proposes the development of a neural network-based adaptive fuzzy logic controller (ANFIS) to alleviate the misalignment issues in V2V-DWC systems. A comparative analysis is conducted between the proposed ANFIS controller and the conventional fuzzy logic controller (FLC) to evaluate their performance across various degrees of LTM. The performance of the proposed ANFIS controller is evaluated through simulations in MATLAB/Simulink, supplemented by experimental testing. The results indicate that the proposed ANFIS controller surpasses the FLC in both simulation and experimental contexts in addressing the V2V misalignment challenge.
