Review of low‐loss wireless power transfer methods for autonomous underwater vehicles

Comprehensive research on the wireless power transfer technology of autonomous underwater vehicles is necessary to address issue significant energy loss in such during transfer. Previous analysis factors that affect seawater environment demonstrated eddy current generated transmission and offset coupling mechanism are main degrade efficiency. In this study, existing literature for recent years reviewed, it concluded can be effectively reduced through optimization, adaptive control, docking device design. This study analyses challenges low-loss prospects future development trends areas, providing a reference realizing efficient flexible supply vehicles.
