Simulation-Assisted Design Process of a 22 kW Wireless Power Transfer System Using Three-Phase Coil Coupling for EVs

The objective of this paper is to study a 22 kW high-power wireless power transfer (WPT) system for battery charging in electric vehicles (EVs). The proposed WPT system consists of a three-phase half-bridge LC–LC (i.e., primary LC/secondary LC) resonant power converter and a three-phase sandwich wou...
