Abstract

A novel and practical methodology is presented in this study for designing contactless wireless energy systems using resonant-mode Class-E converters, aiming to sustain efficient soft-transition switching under various levels of magnetic coupling, even under coil misalignment. The approach integrates the wireless power transfer (WPT) circuit with the inverter’s series resonant network and analytically derives the relationship between the coupling coefficient and impedance phase angle to identify zero voltage switching (ZVS) conditions. A key contribution is the use of the maximum expected coupling coefficient as a critical design point to ensure ZVS across practical variations. A complete step-by-step design procedure is provided. Simulation and experimental results confirm that the inverter achieves and maintains ZVS for coupling values in the range 0 < k ≤ kdesigned, with efficiencies reaching up to 95%. This work supports the advancement of soft-switching inverter design to enable robust and efficient WPT systems under practical misalignment conditions.
