A Review on Integrated Battery Chargers for Electric Vehicles

Electric vehicles (EVs) contain two main power electronics systems, namely, the traction system and battery charging system, which are not used simultaneously since occurs when EV is travelling parked. By taking advantage of this interchangeability, a single set converters that can perform functions both be assembled, classified in literature as integrated chargers (IBCs). Several IBC topologies have been proposed literature, aim paper to present review IBCs for EVs. In order better organize information presented paper, analyzed divided into classical IBCs, switched reluctance machines (SRMs), with galvanic isolation, based on multiple multiphase machines. A comparison between all these subsequently presented, requirements possible functionalities.
