Analysis and design of a secondary-side controlled active rectifier for wireless battery charging application

Abstract

10th International Conference on Electrical and Electronics Engineering, ELECO 2017 -- 29 November 2017 through 2 December 2017 -- -- 1343512-s2.0-85046267852In this paper, analysis and design of a current controlled active rectifier on the secondary side of an inductive power transfer (IPT) system is presented. The secondary side controlled rectifier is designed to adjust the battery dc charge current by varying the effective load resistance seen at the secondary coil terminals. Steady-state performance of the IPT system is evaluated based on fundamental harmonic analysis. The current control and gate signal generation schemes of the whole system are built in a simulation model. Theoretical and simulation results of investigated control scheme are shown. Finally, the theoretical results are validated by experimental results obtained from the implemented laboratory prototype. © 2017 EMO (Turkish Chamber of Electrical Enginners).Türkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Araştirma Kurumu, TÜBITAK: 115E116This study has been carried out as a part of the project “Design and Optimization of a Contactless Charging System for Electric Vehicles” supported by “The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TÜB TAK)” under project grant number 115E116
