Abstract

To improve the power transfer efficiency in wireless power transfer systems, a novel configuration of a magnetic resonant structure is proposed in this paper. According to the analytical expression of mutual inductance, the magnetic field can be improved by weakening the demagnetizing factor for coils with a ferrite core. In this paper, the demagnetizing factors of a cylindrical ferrite core and a novel ferrite core are investigated. Compared with the cylindrical ferrite core, the proposed ferrite core has a smaller demagnetizing factor and an increased mutual inductance. In addition, the magnetic field through the receiving coil is enhanced due to the thin ferrite axis where the magnetic field is concentrated. The proposed ferrite core is designed and analyzed. Moreover, the effects of pitch and lateral misalignment, as well as the number of turns of the receiving coil, the core loss, and the load, are studied. Experimental prototypes are established to validate the performance of the wireless power transfer system with different types of receiving structures. The results indicate that the proposed structure is superior to others and that it shows better performance in power transfer efficiency and transfer distance, which is in good agreement with the theoretical and simulation analysis.
