— Overview

Wired charging already exists, the material says, but wireless charging is attractive for ease of use. In electric vehicles, though, the pads have to line up more carefully than in many other wireless systems, and the misalignment can be larger. That error affects the coupling coefficient of the compensation circuit, shifts the resonant frequency, changes output-voltage control, and can lower the system’s efficiency.

An aluminum shield on the receive pad can make those electrical-parameter changes worse. The study is a literature review, and it treats inductive resonant coupling as the most workable option for high-power EV wireless charging. It also stresses cutting parasitic resistance in the circuit if high efficiency is to be kept. Among the papers it reviews is Bok Young-han’s 2023 master’s thesis at Myongji University, on a 22 kW wireless charging system.

In that study, efficiency reached 94.76 percent when the transmit and receive pads were aligned at the (0.0) position, and stayed between 92.8 and 94.72 percent at other mismatched positions. The thesis is read as support for an inductive power-transfer system with an LCL filter and an LCC-CCL structure, built around a three-phase two-leg power-factor corrector. Those efficiencies belong to the 2023 thesis; they are not a later official standard or a commercial deployment figure.

Oh Seung-dae’s 2023 thesis on an optimal design for a double-sided LCC compensation circuit is also listed among the reviews. The aim, as the material puts it, is to ease the alignment problem so that wireless charging can be convenient and efficient for drivers. Later official standards are outside the scope of this page.

Pads that have to line up

A 22 kW result in 2023

Frequently asked questions

Why is alignment harder in EV wireless charging?

The pads have to line up carefully. Misalignment can change the coupling coefficient and the resonant frequency, disturb output-voltage control, and lower efficiency. An aluminum shield on the receive pad can make those changes worse.

What did the 2023 22 kW study report?

In Bok Young-han’s 2023 master’s thesis at Myongji University, efficiency reached 94.76 percent when the pads were aligned at (0.0), and stayed between 92.8 and 94.72 percent at mismatched positions. Those figures stay in 2023.

What method does the material favor for high power?

Inductive resonant coupling, treated as the most workable option for high-power EV wireless charging, with an emphasis on cutting parasitic resistance.
