Description
Summary:This letter proposes a novel primary-side parameter estimation method for bidirectional inductive power transfer (BD-IPT) systems. This method can estimate mutual inductance at startup and monitor secondary-side phasor information continuously during operation. The proposed method can be used to simplify existing optimal control methods in BD-IPT systems by providing necessary feedback information without a wireless communication link. Besides, it helps to implement new control methods to further improve system performance. A current decoupling concept is utilized to estimate both the mutual inductance and secondary phasor information. A circuit model based on the superposition principle is presented to describe the current decoupling concept. The validity and accuracy of the proposed estimation method are demonstrated using the measured results of a 1-kW prototype BD-IPT system.
