Realizing Constant Current and Constant Voltage Outputs and Input Zero Phase Angle of Wireless Power Transfer Systems with Minimum Component Counts
600 IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS, VOL. 22, NO. 1, JANUARY 2021 Realizing Constant Current and Constant Voltage Outputs and Input Zero Phase Angle of Wireless Power Transfer Systems With Minimum Component Counts Jianghua Lu , Student Member, IEEE, Guorong Zhu , Senior Member, IEEE,DeyanLin,Member, IEEE, Yiming Zhang , Member, IEEE, Haoran Wang , Member, IEEE, and Chunting Chris Mi , Fellow, IEEE Abstract— In both normal and fast wireless electric vehicle advantages of its high specific energy, energy density, and high charging systems, constant current/constant voltage (CC/CV) cycle lifetime. The wireless power transfer (WPT) technology charging profile, regardless of the variation of the battery [1], [2] using magnetic or electric field coupling, namely the state of charge, is one of the most essential characteristics to ensure the battery performance and reliability. The input zero inductive power transfer (IPT) or capacitive power transfer phase angle (ZPA) is able to minimize the system volt-ampere (CPT), provides a promising solution for both normal and fast rating, enhance the power transfer capability, and make it charging [3], [4] of EV Li-ion batteries. Over the full range easy to achieve soft-switching operation over the full range of of the Li-on battery charge, the battery pack equivalent load battery charging profile. Therefore, the load-independent CC and resistance, which defined as the ratio of the charging voltage CV output characteristics with ZPA conditions are necessary for wireless charging systems. However, the existing methods to the charging current, may be roughly from a few ohms to that can achieve these functions either add power switches or several hundred ohms [5]. -

Overview The China Research and Policy Group at Western is a research and policy analysis/ dialogue entity based at the Economic Policy Research Institute (EPRI), Department of Economics, The University of Western Ontario (UWO), London, Ontario, Canada, and partnered with the Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI), Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. It also has several partnering research groups in universities and research institutions in China, and other countries including the UK, Russia and India. It engages in both project supported activities and in policy commentary and dialogue on a wide range of issues related to economic policy issues involving China. It also interacts with the business community both inside and outside of China. Its central focus is on China’s ongoing integration and involvement in the global economy. This covers China’s trade and foreign investment inflows and outflows, its involvement in international bodies (G20, WTO, IMF, World Bank), exchange rate and reserve management policies, growing Southern engagement, and regional trade and monetary policies. But in addition, the group also covers Chinese domestic issues including enterprise reforms, Chinese tax policy, China’s labour markets, China’s regional polices, social policy and inequality and other issues.
