Abstract

This paper presents systematic analysis and design of a megahertz multiple-receiver (RX) wireless power transfer (WPT) system driven by a Class E power amplifier. Both circuit-level and system-level analyses are conducted to discuss the characteristics of the WPT system. In order to simultaneously manage the power flow and maximize the overall system efficiency, a new control scheme is proposed that combines maximum efficiency point tracking and time-division multiplexing. Through the proposed scheme, RXs with different loading and coupling conditions can be charged by the same transmitter with simplified design and control strategy. Finally, the proposed control scheme is validated using an example 6.78-MHz three-RX WPT system. The experimental results show that various power requirements can be quickly and stably satisfied, and the overall average system efficiency can reach as high as 71.7%.
