A high-performance contactless electrical energy transmission (CEET) technique which employs the inductive energy transmission principle is described. The proposed technique enables the implementation of high-efficiency high-power-density fully regulated CEET systems suitable for applications with a wide input and load range. A high efficiency of the system is achieved by recovering the energy ...

A sustainable microgrid for supplying power to electric vehicles (EVs) is investigated in this thesis. The energy produced by the microgrid would be directly transferred to the electric vehicles via on-road charging systems. The proposed sustainable microgrid is located on the roadside and consists of wind turbines, solar panels and a stationary storage system. The optimum sizing, the topology ...

Knowledge of the spatial and temporal distribution heat flux is great interest for quantification sources. In this work, we describe development a new ultra-broadband contactless imaging power meter based on electromagnetic to infrared technology. This sensor mathematical processing images enable reconstruction both amplitude distributions through wide spectral range The full modeling thermocon...

Smart cards are small, portable, tamper-resistant computers used in securitysensitive applications ranging from identi_cation and access control to payment systems. Side-channel attacks, which use clues from timing, power consumption, or even electromagnetic (EM) signals, can compromise the security of these devices and have been an active research area since 1996. Newer contactless” cards comm...

In the paper a bi-directional power electronic interface based on an inductive coupled contactless energy transfer system for plug-in vehicles with Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) capability is presented. To minimize the total losses of the system, a series resonant compensation circuit is applied assuring Near to Zero-Current Switching (N2ZCS) condition for insulated-gate bipolar transistors. The analyt...

Contactless Power Transfer (CPT) is the process of transferring power between two or more physically unconnected electric circuits or devices by means of magnetic induction. The potential application of CPT can range from power transfer to low power home and office appliances to high power industrial systems. Medical, marine, transportation, battery charging applications where physical connecti...
