Voltage Regulating Strategy of a New LCC/S+L Inductive Power Transfer System

Abstract

Abstract In the voltage control of the inductive power transfer (IPT) system, a cascaded DC-DC converter is normally adopted which reduces the power density. However, the wireless communication between the transmitter and the receiver may lead to a delay of control as well as communication instability. This paper proposes a new LCC/S+L resonance topology for the IPT system, which can realize single-stage voltage regulation on the receiving side with both buck and boost capability. Based on the fundamental wave analysis method, this paper analyzes the working principle of LCC/S+L resonant topology. Then the control strategy of the phase shift angle between bridges and within bridges is obtained by the voltage of both ends of the series inductor and the load voltage vector. It is verified by simulation that the proposed new resonance topology and control strategy can achieve output voltage regulation of 300-500 V with a constant 375 V input DC voltage.
