Abstract

This article addresses the problem of hard switching caused by the change of equivalent load in a wireless power transfer (WPT) system based on a class E inverter. Based on the load-sensitive characteristics of the class E inverter, the coil structure is improved, and the self/mutual inductance compensation method of the transmitting coil is proposed to realize a wide range of soft switching. On the basis of fully considering the coupling relationship between the source and load coils, a coil structure with multiple coils in series on the primary side is proposed, and the cross-coupling relationship between the coils is analyzed in detail and simplified. The inverter parameters and coupling mechanism were adjusted by means of coil series reverse connection. Combined with the parameter influence law and the load equivalent principle of the class E inverter, the margin of soft switching at the inverter side was increased and the load offset correction was carried out. The soft-switching effect of the equivalent load from 0 to 3.3 times of ideal load was obtained, and the purpose of improving system reliability and efficiency was achieved. Finally, the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method were verified by simulation and experiment.
