    Abstract: Techniques for determining power electronics feasibility in a wireless power transfer system with a transmitting element and a receiving element are provided. An example apparatus includes a processor configured to receive FEM simulation results for offset positions between the transmitting element and the receiving element, calculate a total real input current variation for the offset positions based on the FEM simulation results, calculate an indication of a difference between an ideal transmitting element current value and a real transmitting element current value for each of the offset positions based on the FEM simulation results, determine a maximum difference value based on the indication of the difference for each of the offset positions, and determine the power electronics feasibility based on the total real input current variation as compared to a total real input current variation threshold value, and the maximum difference value as compared to a maximum difference threshold value.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus are disclosed for wirelessly charging an electric vehicle. In one aspect, a method for transferring power via a magnetic field in a wireless power transfer system is provided. The method includes outputting an alternating electric current to a wireless power transmitter, generating, at the wireless power transmitter, the magnetic field in response to being driven with the alternating electrical current, receiving a value indicative of an electrical characteristic of the wireless power transmitter, and adjusting an operating characteristic of the wireless power transmitter to trigger a change in an electrical current in the receiver, the amount of adjustment selected to cause adjustment of an amount of reactive power in the wireless power transfer system based on changes in the receiver that automatically occur to maintain the output power substantially constant in response to the change in the electrical current in the receiver.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for setting an operating frequency for wireless charging systems. The wireless charging system comprises a transmitter circuit configured to generate a magnetic field in response to a current having an operating frequency and driving the transmitter circuit, and a receiver circuit configured to receive power via the magnetic field. The transmitter circuit and the receiver circuit are separated by an offset distance that contributes to a level of detuning between the transmitter and receiver circuits. To reduce a level of detuning, a level of coupling between the transmitter and receiver circuits is determined based upon a measured current or voltage value associated with the receiver circuit. From the determined level of coupling, the offset distance can be estimated. The offset distance may be used to determine a desired operating frequency for reducing the level of detuning between the transmitter circuit and the receiver circuit.
