Load identification in dynamic wireless power transfer system utilizing current injection in the transmitting coil

In this paper, a load identification approach for dynamic wireless power transfer for electric vehicles is introduced. In the proposed method, determination of the load parameters and position are achieved without requiring any communication link between the transmitter and receiver or using any extra coil. The load detection procedure is achievable using two modes: the energy injection mode and the free resonant mode. The operating principles and theoretical analysis of this method are presented in this paper, together with experimental results
