Abstract
The electric vehicles (EVs) have played an important role in people's traveling due to the clean energy and friendly environment. Considering the endurance issue of EVs, wireless charging is regarded as a convenient and effective solution. However, the charging power and the efficiency would be greatly affected when the transmitting coil (TC) and the receiving coils are nonaligned. In this article, we present a flexible and high-accuracy positioning device based on electromagnetic balance, which could automatically achieve wireless charging and two-level positioning without communication between TC and EVs during the location. Besides, a six-coil cross-coupled circuit model has been built to optimize the key parameters that affect the positioning accuracy. The theoretical analysis and experimental results show that the proposed structures and location method have certain advantages in positioning accuracy, operation complexity, and practicability. Within the range of first-level positioning, the accuracy could achieve 1 cm. There is a high fitting performance between the simulation and experimental results, which verify the correctness of the theoretical analysis and the validity of the structures. Moreover, an additional comparative experiment has been designed to verify the correctness of the proposed method used in the wireless charging positioning system with ferrite cores and a magnetic shielding layer.
