A Multireceiver Wireless Power Supply System with Power Equalization in Stereoscopic Space

With the rapid development of wireless power transfer (WPT) technology, the traditional single-transceiver WPT system has become more and more advanced; however, it is still difficult to meet its extensive application requirements. Aiming at the wireless charging of mobile phones in public places, electric vehicles (EVs) in multistorey garages, and electronic shelf labels (ESLs) in supermarket merchandise shelves, a multireceiver wireless power supply system with power equalization is proposed. The condition of power equalization is derived according to the equivalent circuit of the proposed WPT system, and the received power can be equally maintained by adjusting the transceiver loop resistance when the total load number or transmission distance changes. A simulation model is established to evaluate the electromagnetic environment of the proposed WPT system, and the results comply with the electromagnetic safety of the ICNIRP-2018 guidelines. Finally, the experimental results show that the power differential rate that meets the power equalization condition is 13 to 17% lower than that of the unsatisfied rate, which verifies the effectiveness of the proposed system in terms of power equalization.
