Abstract

In this study, the leakage magnetic field (LMF) from the unipolar (circular, rectangular, etc.) and bipolar (double-D) coil-based wireless charging systems (WCSs) are investigated and compared. The unipolar and bipolar pads, which are the two most widely adopted charging-pads, have significantly different magnetic field emission characteristics. In this paper, the spatial-distribution and vector-pattern of the leakage magnetic field are studied and compared for similar 11 kW unipolar and bipolar coil-based WCSs. The field emissions are simulated using finite element analysis (FEA) and tested experimentally with an 11 kW bipolar coil-based WCS prototype. The results show that the leakage magnetic field of the unipolar and bipolar pads have widely different vector-orientation and spatial distributions of the leakage magnetic field. The results show that the unipolar coil based WCS has a dominant vertical and the bipolar pads coil-based WCS has dominant horizontally aligned leakage magnetic field. Considering the shielding, the aluminum plate is found highly effective for the unipolar pad and almost ineffective for bipolar pads.
