Wireless Power Transfer Using Double DD Coils

Abstract

This paper deals with a wireless power transfer system where a novel structure of transmitting/receiving double DD coils is applied. This system uses two identical double D (DD) transmitter coils stacked on each other to transfer power to two stacked receiver coils. The power is transmitted simultaneously and independently through both transmitter coils to the receiving coils. The magnetic field of the first coil does not interfere with the second coil. Both transmitter and receiver coils are placed on each other and occupy the same footprint, so there is no need for increased space. This can lead to an interesting wireless power transfer system—from single load to double the load and higher power transfer density.
