In the classical WPT technology, when the load coil and the receiving coil are not aligned, the receiving power will be significantly reduced. In this paper, a new type of receiving coil named spiral add planar (SAP) coil is proposed, which can make the receiving power of the load coil almost independent of its position. The T-type equivalent circuit analysis method is used to analyze the transmission performance of the WPT system. By calculating the mutual inductance between non-coaxial coils, it can be proved theoretically that when the load coils are located at different positions, the mutual inductance between the SAP coil and the load coil is more stable comparing to the spiral coil or the planar coil. In addition, this SAP coil can support multiple loads and arbitrary movement of the load within the area of the SAP coil. This paper also proposed the concept of radius ratio (that is, the ratio of the radius of the load coil to the radius of the RX coil), and found that when the radius ratio is less than 1/2, the free-positioning characteristic is good. The simulation and experimental results show that when the load coil moves within the range of the SAP coil, the volatility of its S21 value is less than ± 1 dB.
In this paper, the circuit parameters of the Class-E power amplifier are investigated and optimized to achieve the maximum of output power and efficiency in a two-coil Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) system. The circuit is simulated with software named Saber. Working frequency, the value of capacitors and inductor, which has relationship with the output power and efficiency, are investigated during the simulation. With the simulation results, it is found that the frequency and the shunt capacitor need to be optimized for high performance of the wireless power transfer system.
The diversity gains of amplify-and-forward (AF) relay system with frequency selective channels are discussed. The orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is applied to overcome the inter-symbol interference. The diversity gains are presented for single and multiple relay systems with detailed derivations.
