Description
Presents a detailed overview of multiple-objective wireless power transfer (WPT) technologies, including the latest research developments and emerging applications Wireless Power Transfer: Principles and Applications offers comprehensive coverage of all key aspects of wireless power transfer (WPT) technologies, including fundamental theory, intelligent control, configuration analysis, and emerging power electronics techniques. This unique resource is the first book of its kind to provide in-depth discussion of energy transmission control schemes with emphasis on omni-directional vector control, energy-encryption-based security control, and maximum efficiency and power control under various conditions.
Addressing a wide range of topics, the authors provide readers with a broad view of current WPT technologies, state-of-the-art applications, emerging power electronics techniques, and demand-based optimal designs for transmitter, pickup, and self-resonance coils. Detailed chapters discuss dynamic mutual impact and cross-coupling effects, multiple-objective inductive power transfer distribution, and a wide range of wireless power transfer technologies, from microwave beams with rectifying antennas to separable transformers in electric car charging systems. In addition, this text:
Presents the methodologies and approaches of emerging multiple-objective WPT technologies
Discusses various applications for wireless charging techniques, including contactless power for electric vehicles, in-flight charging for unmanned aerial vehicles, and complex-condition charging for wireless motors
Covers both intermittent and continuous impedance matching methods for different classes of coils
Explores the use of Left-Handed Metamaterials (LHM) to increase the performance of WPT
Features more than 400 high-quality illustrations and numerous figures and tables throughout
Wireless Power Transfer: Principles and Applications is an invaluable technical reference for academic researchers and industry professionals in power and energy engineering, and an excellent textbook for postgraduate courses in relevant areas of industrial and electronic engineering.
