Wireless Power Transfer System with Series Resonant Inverse Class-E Inverter <Abstract> This paper proposes the wireless power transfer (WPT) system with the series resonant inverse class-E inverter. The pro- posed WTP system mitigates the switch-voltage stress in the inverter part by achieving the zero-current switching (ZCS) instead of the zero-voltage switching (ZVS). The design procedure for the proposed WPT system is described. The circuit optimization is applied to the proposed system for obtain- ing maximum efficiency. Based on the design and optimization, the prototype of the proposed WPT system was implemented. The implemented system achieved 84.5 % efficiency with 42 W output power at 1 MHz. |
