The way to engineering EV wireless charging: DACIA electron

Abstract

Wireless power transmission is a special concern of electrical engineering with major implications in the life of society. It is manifested both in the scientific field through the large number of congresses and prestigious journals publications as well as in various practical applications ranging from medical care to robotics, communications and military technique. After a latency of more than 100 years since Tesla's inventions, advances in microelectronics and power electronics have led to the capitalization of this field. Now is the time when different wireless power transmission techniques are used starting from powers in the order of some W to powers of tenths of kW. This paper presents for the first time details about the 3.7 kW equipment for the wireless battery charging for Dacia Sandero Electron EV. There is a very special interest for such systems because it is part of the preparations for the next generation of driverless EV cars.
