Abstract

The application of wireless power transfer (WPT) in electric vehicles (EVs) has brought great convenience, safety, and flexibility to EV owners. Traditional EV charging converters can only support wired charging or wireless charging with low integration. In order to realize both wired and wireless charging functions in the same system, excessive power switches will be utilized, resulting in a redundant structure and low power density. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a novel multi-functional converter for EV charging. Using one set of power switches, the proposed converter can output DC voltage for wired charging or high-frequency AC voltage for wireless charging. Circuit topology and control method are discussed and analyzed. Finally, simulations in MATLAB/SIMULINK are conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed multi-functional converter. © 2023 IEEE.
