Design of coaxial coupled structure for distance-insensitive wireless power transfer.

Abstract

Coaxial coupled structure of wireless power transfer, applied to high-precision instruments in aerospace, can eliminate interference sources by spatial isolation. For the optimization of the electromagnetic structure, a C-shaped magnetic structure is presented for both shielding electromagnetic simulation and improving coupling. By comparing of spiral and coaxial structures, an analysis is presented and validated in the effect of positional offset on inductive coupling, voltage gain, and efficiency. To obtain a stable and sufficient power supply, the prototype is implemented based on primary series-secondary series compensation topology with a maximum output power of 200 W, and a DC-DC efficiency of 82% is achieved.
