Progress in Analysis of Key Technologies for Dynamic Wireless Charging of Electric Vehicles

At present, electric vehicles are very common means of transportation in our life. Contact charging is the main method of electric vehicles in China. With the continuous improvement of people’s awareness of environmental protection, wireless charging technology is also under constant development. Currently, there are more static wireless charging technologies, while dynamic charging mode is only a perfection and supplement to it, which is crucial to the promotion of electric vehicles and is able to make charging work faster and easier. China has been researching dynamic wireless charging technology, but it has been affected by many factors. Therefore, it is necessary for the relevant personnel to solve the existing obstacles according to the characteristics of dynamic wireless charging technology and apply dynamic wireless charging technology in an efficient manner.


Introduction
The current society cannot be developed without the means of transportation, so cars are widely used in daily life. However, they constitute the most important factor causing the greenhouse effect. With the awakening and improvement of people's awareness of environmental protection, electric vehicles have gradually been introduced as an energy-saving and environmentally friendly means of transportation. Yet in the development process of electric vehicles, the development of dynamic wireless power supply system with high efficiency and moderate cost has gradually become a research hotspot [1]. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the DOI: 10

Research and Analysis on Dynamic Wireless Charging Technology of Electric Vehicles
At present, research teams in New Zealand, Japan, the United States, South Korea and so on have all started to study the relevant technologies of dynamic wireless power transfer for electric vehicles, and have conducted a series of researches on the existing problems, including the system modeling method and the optimal design of electromagnetic coupling mechanism. New Zealand and Germany have jointly developed a prototype of a 100 kW wireless power transfer train with a track length of about 100 m and without battery pack installed. See Figure 1 for details. According to the coupling structure and medium damage of dynamic wireless charging of electric vehicles, the United States has conducted research, and finally revealed that the transmission efficiency and power are affected by the position of electric vehicles by using series connection and full bridge inversion. South Korea has designed and studied the entire rail train wireless power transfer system. The coupling mechanism strengthens the coupling performance through the long straight guide rail at the transmitting end and two small magnetic cores, dispersing the capacitance in the transmitting coil to reduce the capacitance voltage stress.
Many colleges and universities in China have studied dynamic radio technology at an earlier stage, mainly focusing on the technologies including changes of high-power power electronics and electric energy, the control and optimization of system modeling, the synchronous transmission of energy and information, electromagnetic compatibility and shielding, etc., and they have achieved effective results in theory, technical difficulties and some key issues.

Analysis of Types and Characteristics of Dynamic
Wireless Charging Technology for Electric Vehicles

Characteristics
Wireless charging technology is featured with contactless charging by means of Figure 1. Type E of first generation.

Classification
The wireless charging can be generally divided into three types based on its forms: 1) magnetic resonance charging technology. Magnetic resonance applications include power supply, output, reception, rectifier, etc. According to its own technical characteristics, such technology is basically the same as electromagnet-

Necessity of Developing Dynamic Wireless Charging Technology for Electric Vehicles
Due to the characteristics of the technology itself and the capacity of the battery, the power consumption of electric vehicles in the application process leads to the difficulty in the actual traveling. Although static wireless charging technology can effectively solve the deficiencies existing in contact charging, there are still some practical problems in the actual process, such as poor endurance effect, high cost, high charging frequency, etc. These factors will limit the development of wireless charging technology. At present, people's awareness of environmental protection is gradually improving, and the government has been vigorously encouraging the green traveling. Under this background, it is necessary to consider the endurance of electric vehicles on the basis of ensuring travel efficiency.

Coupling Problem
The application of dynamic wireless charging technology has raised the requirements of the original technology. It is very important to set up the coupling mechanism by using bipolar power supply guide rail in the setting of the device.
Generally speaking, such structure is superior to unipolar guide rail in practice, and the bipolar guide rail has higher application power in practice, and its own size is more suitable for the level of track magnetic field. The construction is simpler, the cost is lower, and the advantage is obvious. However, in the actual application, such technology still has the problem of coupling zero, which cannot be ignored. Due to the irregular distribution of the magnetic field in the bipolar guide rail, the magnetic field in each part is not uniform during power transmission. The coupling problem has led to the problem of low power conversion efficiency in the transmission process. The whole system will have unstable power transmission and cannot realize the purpose of efficient and fast charging.
Therefore, it is necessary to take effective measures for optimization [3].

Poor EMC Effect of Dynamic Wireless Charging Technology
Electro-magnetic compatibility (EMC) is a crucial link in dynamic wireless charging technology. It is directly related to the practical application efficiency of wireless charging system and will have a direct impact on power transmission.
In practice, the poor EMC will affect the whole power system and the unstable power transmission will occur. At the same time, the EMC problem is also related to people's health. Given on this basis, it is necessary to effectively solve the EMC problems in practice so as to ensure the efficient and continuous operation of the dynamic wireless charging system device and improve the reliability of dynamic wireless charging [4]. At present, for the problem of poor EMC effect, the negative impact of electromagnetic compatibility is mainly controlled within a certain range by effective means, so as to improve the overall safety of the system.

Robust Control of Energy Transmission
Due to the multiple factors such as change of the relative position of the coupling mechanism and the uneven distribution of the magnetic field between the sectional guide rails, the energy transmission of bipolar power supply guide rails is in a very fast and nonlinear change process, and it has become the main research goal as how to improve the response speed of the system in this process.

Design and Optimization of Magnetic Coupling Mechanism
The current dynamic wireless power transfer guideway can be divided into the continuous single coil structure of rectangular long coil type, dual magnetic pole type and discrete type. Auckland University proposed the solution of rectangular long coil power supply guide rail, and the different forms of receiving end structure, but the lateral displacement capability of this solution is relatively poor.
Therefore, the new bipolar receiving end and double D form can obviously improve the lateral displacement capability of the coupling mechanism. Based on the research of Auckland University, KAIST added a magnetic core structure to the coil. The structure has been optimized and designed to improve the transmission distance and efficiency, but this has significantly increased the cost of the equipment [5]. From 2011 to mid-2015, researchers in KAIST proposed the fourth generation of bipolar magnetic core track with type I structure and the fifth generation of bipolar power supply track with type S structure, which are featured by longer transmission distance, narrower width and higher efficiency.
The dual-pole power supply rail changes the direction from the direction perpendicular to the vehicle to the direction of the vehicle. It has the characteristics such as higher power density, less construction difficulty, compact size, strong adaptability to lateral movement on both sides of the rail, etc., and is more suitable for dynamic wireless power transfer of electric vehicles. The advantages and disadvantages of long coil type and dual magnetic pole type guide rails are shown in Table 1.
Researchers in KAIST proposed a bi-directional power supply rail structure targeted at the problem of zero coupling coefficient along the direction of travel.
Although the zero coupling system problem can be solved, the DC chopper and phase locked loop are used to supply the amplitude and phase of the D-axis and Table 1. Analysis of advantages and disadvantages of two types of common power supply guides.

Type of Guide Rail Advantages Disadvantages
Dual magnetic pole type The power density is relatively high, the lateral displacement adaptability is strong, and the size is very compact, hence the construction is less difficult, and the magnetic field exposure level on both sides of the track is relatively low The distribution of magnetic field space is not uniform, the consumption of magnetic cores is relatively large, and the manufacturing cost is relatively high Long coil type The spatial distribution of the magnetic field is very uniform, and there is no magnetic core; hence the transmission power is relatively stable, and the manufacturing cost is low The power density is relatively low, the construction area is relatively large, the lateral displacement adaptability is not strong, and the magnetic field exposure level on both sides of the track is relatively high DOI: 10.4236/epe.2019.115012 206 Energy and Power Engineering Q-axis dual power supply rail current according to the spatial movement position of the electric energy pickup mechanism, there are still many links in the whole control process, and an additional transmitting coil will be introduced, which will cause the problem of low system efficiency. Meanwhile, based on the coupling mechanism, the zero point problem of the coupling coefficient can be effectively solved [6].

Robust Control Technology for Energy Transmission
The dynamic wireless power transmission control technology is divided into three kinds, namely secondary side control, bilateral control and primary side control. In the system design, KAIST uses the original side constant current empty box to control the inverter output constant current by effectively adjusting the primary side DC bus voltage [7]. The primary side control is mainly to enable the constant magnetic field to be generated on the power supply guide rail so as to realize robust control. Tokyo University used the strategy of secondary side control to add Buck converter to the rectifier circuit, and built a small

Electromagnetic Compatibility Technology
The dynamic radio can transmit high frequency and strong magnetic field to realize wireless transmission of electric energy itself. Since the electromagnetic  [9]. The electric vehicle radio can transmit electromagnetic interference, which has always been divided into active and passive shielding. The active shielding is by placing an active shielding coil near the coupling mechanism, which can counteract the magnetic field. Compared with metal shielding, it requires less space. In 2013, KAIST put forward to add resonant coil to actively cancel the magnetic field, and carried out experiments. In 2015, it proposed to place the shielding coil on one side of the coupling structure to generate induced current through the leakage magnetic field to realize the shielding function of the magnetic field. During this process, it will be affected by the control factors. It is difficult to generate a cancellation magnetic field with exactly the same amplitude, and it will reduce the overall efficiency of the system. In terms of passive shielding, ferromagnetic materials are used to provide an alternative low permeability metal conductor material for magnetic flux to generate magnetic field, which is opposite to magnetic flux leakage [10]. Ferromagnetic materials can effectively improve the mutual inductance or self-inductance system of magnetic coupling coils, improve the coupling performance, and further optimize the distribution constraints of magnetic field space. Although the loss is not much, the shielding effect is very limited. Metal shields are widely used in radio frequency applications and can suppress electromagnetic interference from high frequency magnetic fields. The utilization of metal conductor materials with low permeability can reduce electromagnetic interference of itself. The advantage of this scheme is very obvious, and is easy to operate, but it cannot completely cover the transmitting and receiving coils.

Conclusion
There are many problems in the actual development process of dynamic wireless charging technology. The effective solutions to be applied in practice can be found out after in-depth analysis and research, so as to ensure better development of dynamic wireless charging technology. However, at present, these theories still need to be further explored in practice so that dynamic wireless charging technology can be effectively applied in practice.
