Abstract:
This paper proposes a new topology-reconfigurable capacitive compensation network, aiming to achieve the energy encryption of the contactless charging for multiple electric vehicles (EVs). The proposed variable topology of compensation network consists of an M × N capacitor matrix, where capacitors can be connected either in series or in parallel by controlling switches. Then, the proposed capacitor matrix can be formed in the series-parallel and the series-parallel-series-parallel topologies according to the adjustment of the resonant frequency. In such ways, the proposed topology-reconfigurable capacitor matrix can significantly extend the capacitive compensating range while reducing the number of capacitors, thus effectively enhancing the security performance of multiple-objective contactless charging systems. Finally, this paper gives the simulated and experimental results to verify the theoretical analysis, which can further illustrate the feasibility of the proposed topology-reconfigurable capacitor matrix for the energy encryption of EV contactless charging systems.
