THE NORMATIVE MAGNITUDE
Abstract
The aim of an inductively coupled wireless power transfer (ICWPT) system is to provide power to a movable object across a gapped magnetic structure. Its theoretical development relies on both magnetic and power electronics together as an integrated system. In the case of magnetic structure, designing a magnetic coupling structure with a small air gap would result in high magnetic coupling coefficient and increased power transfer capability. Modeling and representing the magnetic circuit and associate its geometrical characteristics with its electrical behavior are very important as: to enable predicting the circuit performance and to provide the insight needed to achieve an optimized design.
