In this paper, theoretical analysis and system simulations are carried out to study the effects of the transmitter-compensated inductance mistuning on charging power, transfer efficiency, and the phase angle between the input voltage and input current in a wireless power transfer (WPT) system using inductor/capacitor/capacitor-series (LCC-S) topology. To cancel out the effects of the mistuning, an integrated transmitting coil design scheme is proposed, in which the transmitting coil is unipolar while the compensation coils are bipolar. Theoretical calculations and simulations are performed to show that the proposed compensation inductor guarantees the stability of the compensation inductance when the permeability of the magnetic sheet changes. Furthermore, it is verified that by using the integrated structure the effect of the horizontal misalignment can be ignored. Finally, an experimental platform is built to validate the above results of theoretical analysis and simulation. This proves that the theoretical analysis and simulation results are consistent with each other, which confirmed the stability and feasibility of the integrated compensation inductor.

This paper investigates the issue of leakage current at the transmitter in the Dynamic Wireless Power Transfer (DWPT) system for electric vehicles and puts forward a novel bilateral resonant compensation topology structure based on the conventional LCC-S architecture. Based on the LCC-S framework, a circuit model was developed for traditional (unilateral)/bilateral resonant compensation topologies. The Fourier series voltage-to-earth expansions for the power supply rail were deduced for both topologies. Subsequently, the voltage-to-earth waveforms for the power supply rail were obtained by utilizing the Fourier series expansions of the voltage-to-earth and the corresponding circuit simulation models. The results demonstrate the efficacy of the bilateral resonant compensation topology in mitigating higher-order harmonics of the voltage to earth on the power supply rail by effectively suppressing the distortion in the leakage current and minimizing its conduction. The effectiveness of the double-ended resonant compensation topology in suppressing leakage current conduction has been verified through experimental tests and waveform comparisons of the voltage to earth and leakage current on the power supply rail under two different topologies. Through experimental testing, during which the unilateral/bilateral resonant compensation topologies were compared, an analysis was conducted on the waveforms of the voltage to earth and leakage current of the power supply rail. The results verified the effectiveness of the bilateral resonant compensation topology in mitigating the conduction of leakage current. This study provides empirical evidence supporting the use of the bilateral resonant compensation topology for suppressing leakage current in power rail applications.
