In a context of growing electrification of road transport, Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) appears as an appealing alternative technology as it enables Electric Vehicles (EVs) to charge while driving and without any mechanical contact (with overhead cables or rails in the ground). Although the WPT technology background dates from the end of 20th century, recent advances in semiconductor technologies have enabled the first real demonstrations. Within the FABRIC European project, the French research Institute VEDECOM and its partners implemented a whole prototype wireless power transfer charging infrastructure. The first demonstrations of Inductive WPT in different real driving conditions (up to 20 kW, from 0 to 100 km/h, with one or two serial vehicles) were provided. This paper describes the prototype equipment and its instrumentation and provides the system characterization results. The future of the Inductive WPT technology is further discussed considering its different technical and economic challenges. In parallel, how this technology could be part of future generation road infrastructures is discussed. Future research and demonstration steps are presented in the conclusion.

In this study, a novel system named the third-generation wireless in-wheel motor (WIWM-3), which has a dynamic wireless power transfer (DWPT) system, is developed. It can extend the cruise range, which is one of the key specifications of electric vehicles. DWPT also reduces CO2 emission as the driving resistance is reduced due to light weight of the batteries. In this study, CO2 emission by an internal combustion vehicle, a long range drivable electric vehicle with the same cruise range, and an electric vehicle with WIWM-3 equipped with the DWPT system are analyzed using actual measurement data and calculated data based on actual measurement or specification data. A WPT system with WIWM-3 achieves 92.5% DC-to-DC efficiency as indicated by an actual measurement at the nominal position. Thus, the electric vehicle with DWPT can reduce up to 62% of CO2 emission in internal combustion vehicles, and the long-range drivable vehicle emits 17% more CO2 than the electric vehicle with DWPT. Moreover, it is expected that by 2050, electric vehicles with DWPT will reduce CO2 emissions from internal combustion vehicles by 95% in Japan. DWPT systems make electric vehicles more sustainable and, hence, more acceptable for consumers.

This paper reviews previous studies on metamaterials and its application to wireless power transfer (WPT) technologies, as well as discussing about development opportunities and technical challenges for the contactless charging of electric vehicles (EVs). The EV establishes a bridge between sustainable energies and our daily transportation, especially the park-and-charge and move-and-charge for EVs have attracted increasing attentions from the academia and the industry. However, the metamaterials-based WPT has been nearly unexplored specifically for EVs by now. Accordingly, this paper gives an overview for the metamaterial-based WPT technologies, with emphasizes on enhancing efficiency, increasing distance, improving misalignment tolerance, and compacting size. From the perspective of EV wireless charging, this paper discusses about the breakthrough to current WPT technique bottlenecks and prospective EV charging scenarios by utilizing the left-handed material. Meanwhile, the technical issues to be addressed are also summarized in this paper, which aims to arouse emerging research topics for the future development of EV wireless charging systems.

The emerging of inductive wireless power transfer (IWPT) technology provides more opportunities for the electric vehicle (EV) battery to have a better recharging process. With the development of IWPT technology, various way of wireless charging of the EV battery is proposed in order to find the best solution. To further understand the fundamentals of the IWPT system itself, an ample review is done. There are different ways of EV charging which are static charging (wired), static wireless charging (SWC) and dynamic wireless charging (DWC). The review starts with a brief comparison of static charging, SWC and DWC. Then, in detailed discussion on the fundamental concepts, related laws and equations that govern the IWPT principle are also included. In this review, the focus is more on the DWC with a little discussion on static charging and SWC to ensure in-depth understanding before one can do further research about the EV charging process. The in-depth perception regarding the development of DWC is elaborated together with the system architecture of the IWPT and DWC system and the different track versions of DWC, which is installable to the road lane.

<p>In these days, electric vehicles are enthusiastically researched as a countermeasure to air pollution, although these do not have practicality compared to gasoline-powered vehicles. The aim of this study is to transport energy wirelessly and efficiently to an electric vehicle. To accomplish this, we focused on frequency of an alternating current (AC) power supply, and suggested a method which determined the value of it constantly. In particular, a wireless power transfer circuit and a lithium-ion battery in an electric vehicle were expressed with an equivalent circuit, and efficiency of energy transfer was calculated. Furthermore, the optimal frequency which maximizes efficiency was found, and the behavior of voltage was demonstrated on a secondary circuit. Finally, we could obtain the larger electromotive force at the secondary inductor than an input voltage.</p>

The establishment of international and regional standards for electric vehicle (EV) magnetic field wireless power transfer (MF-WPT) systems started in 2010 by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). In the meantime, the EV MF-WPT standardization has been focused on primary device and secondary device topology. Recently, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), and SAE have begun describing the communication and alignment techniques for EV MF-WPT. In this paper, we present a fine positioning method using a low-frequency (LF) signal, as mentioned in IEC 61980 and SAE J2954. Through modeling and simulation, we optimized a LF ferrite rod antenna (FRA) for EV MF-WPT fine positioning. We also found the optimal arrangement of LF-FRAs on primary device and secondary device Finally, we used a test bench to experiment and check the results of our proposal.


Electric Vehicles (EVs) are considered to be one of the most sustainable forms of transportation. Unlike hybrid vehicles or gas-powered cars, EVs run solely on electric power. However, despite their many benefits, EVs are facing major challenges in the market today. The major challenge being its exorbitant costs as compare to fuel-based cars. And, range anxiety also proves to be a hurdle for EVs [6]. Thus, to answer all the aforementioned challenges, we proposed Electro-Magnetic Induction-based Roads (EMIR), a dynamic wireless recharging system. EVs would be able to slip into a special EMIR green lane, recharge their batteries a bit, and slip out. This technology will thus reduce the size of the EV battery, which is the most expensive part of the EV, by increasing its effective mileage and the life of the battery. This paper elaborates on the method of performing dynamic wireless power transfer through resonance based electromagnetic induction. A 163 cm long and a 30 cm wide transmitter coil was designed to transfer electrical energy to an oval-shaped receiver coil with 40 cm as its major axis and 30 cm as its minor axis. The EV battery is dynamically recharged by a charging infrastructure between the road and the vehicle while it is in motion with a high efficiency. The transmitter coils are essentially supposed to be embedded in the road but are placed over the road for visual purposes. The receiver coil is placed under the EV. When the EV goes over the electric road, it gets dynamically recharged. A prototypic EMIR was successfully designed to demonstrate the Dynamic Wireless Power Transfer (DWPT) for EVs.
