Wireless Electric Vehicle Charging
Wireless Electric Vehicle Charging (WEVC) is a technology that uses electromagnetic fields to transfer energy between two objects. Essentially, it's a large-scale version of the wireless charging tech used for your smartphone.
Here's how it works:
1️⃣ A source device (ground-based charging pad) generates an electromagnetic field, which the target device (receiver pad on the car's undercarriage) can pick up.
2️⃣ The receiver pad converts the electromagnetic energy back into electrical energy, which charges the car's battery.
3️⃣ An intelligent communication system between the source and target device ensures efficient energy transfer.
The primary advantages of wireless charging include convenience (no need to manually plug and unplug), increased safety (reducing risks associated with physical connectors), and the potential for continuous charging (via charging pads embedded in roads).
As with any emerging technology, there are challenges to overcome, including energy transfer efficiency, alignment of the charging and receiver pads, and ensuring the technology is safe and doesn't interfere with other systems.
