In wireless charging devices, different wireless charging standards have caused charging incompatibility, and the utilization rate of the DC voltage at the transmitter is not high, which brings challenges to the application of wireless charging. To solve these two problems, this paper proposes a multi-frequency multi-amplitude (MFMA) superimposition modulation method. This method superimposes multiple frequency signals, and then compares the synthesized signal with a high-frequency triangular carrier to output a square wave voltage signal containing information such as the frequency and amplitude of the pre-output signal. Furthermore, a phase-shifting optimization algorithm is proposed, i.e., based on the proposed MFMA superimposition modulation method, the utilization rate of the DC voltage of the system is improved by reasonably adjusting the initial phase of each frequency. Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed method can output at least four frequencies simultaneously by using a single inverter, effectively reducing the volume of the transmitter, and being compatible with the frequency range of several charging standards. The proposed phase-shifting optimization has a significant effect on improving the utilization of DC voltage with an increase of 44.88%.
Communication between the primary and secondary sides is pivotal to the wireless power transfer (WPT) system. The system control commands and feedback information need simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT). In this paper, a FSK-based SWIPT system with full-duplex communication via a shared channel is provided. Considering the complexity of the coupling relationship in this kind of full-duplex SWIPT system, this paper proposes an analysis method based on the transmission channel, studies the crosstalk between the power channel and the information channel, and between the forward and reverse transfer of information. A design method of full-duplex communication SWIPT system based on shared coupling channels is provided. A 60 W SWIPT prototype with a full-duplex communication rate of 20 kbps is built to verify the proposed method.
With the increasing integration of distributed energy resources into modern power systems, virtual synchronous generators (VSGs) have been a promising approach to imitate the inertial response of synchronous generators, thereby enhancing microgrid stability in a dynamic state. When many VSGs are integrated into microgrids, the dynamic characteristics of the system become increasingly complex. Current studies typically assume that different VSGs are connected to a common coupling point, focusing on analyzing the interaction characteristics, which may overlook the widely distributed line impedances in microgrids with distance between different facilities. This may lead to incomplete understanding of the interaction dynamics when VSGs are distributed over long feeder lines. Therefore, this paper proposes and investigates a multi-node, multi-VSG model incorporating line impedances among different nodes, establishing transfer function models for multi-node load disturbances and the frequency responses of individual VSGs. The study explores the dynamic response characteristics of VSGs under varying parameter influences and proposes principles for designing VSG port impedance and inertia parameters to optimize system dynamic frequency characteristics. The findings, validated through simulations in PSCAD v46, provide insights for enhancing the flexibility and reliability of grids incorporating VSGs.
