Abstract
Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are widely used for ocean exploration; however, the way they are replenished becomes the biggest issue limiting their range and efficiency. A dual transmission coil wireless power transfer (DTCWPT) system based on parity–time (PT) symmetry is proposed in this paper to realize an autoadaptive constant power transmission. A shielded housing structure for coils is equipped to realize WPT in the ocean. In the offset experiments, the proposed dual transmitting coil structure was able to achieve a stable power transmission of 39 W within an offset range of 8.1 cm. It is obvious that the DTCWPT system based on PT symmetry could charge an AUV in the ocean with high robustness. This paper provides a novel solution based on DTCWPT for AUV energy supply. The proposed DTCWPT system could offer remarkable improvements in the navigation performance of AUVs.
