Abstract

This paper proposes an inductive coupled wireless power transfer (WPT) system with class-E2 dc-dc converter along with its design procedure. The proposed WPT system can achieve high power-conversion efficiency at high frequencies because it satisfies the class-E zero-voltage switching and zero-derivative-voltage switching conditions on both the inverter and the rectifier. By using the class-E inverter as a transmitter and the class-E rectifier as a receiver, high power-delivery efficiency can be achieved in the designed WPT system. By using a numerical design procedure proposed in the previous work, it is possible to design the WPT system without considering the impedance matching for satisfying the class-E ZVS/ZDS conditions. The experimental results of the design example showed the overall efficiency of 85.1 % at 100 W output power and 200 kHz operating frequency.
