Model Based Implementation of Wireless Power Transfer System for Charging of E-Vehicles

The popularity of electric vehicles has been increasing day by day due to the effect of the pollution caused by the fossil fuels. In the present scenario the difficulty arising in the use of the electric based transportation is the unavailability of the charging stations. So wireless charging system have emerged as one of the solutions for charging of electricity based vehicles. Wireless based electric vehicles come with an opportunity of charging those vehicles that can have the priority of not having charging plugs. Wireless charging technology comes with an option of spark free operation, reliable and user friendly as compared to the plug charging option. This technology makes use of a common charger that can be used for all types of electric operated vehicles. Wireless power transfer technology requires design of inductive coils which involves proper selection of inductances values. A high frequency full bridge converter has to be tuned for wireless power transfer between the transmitter and receiver coils. This paper presents an effective way of charging electric vehicles that has been implemented in Matlab/Simulink simulations. Rigorous simulations were carried out and analysis were conducted to evaluate the system's performance.
