Abstract
The Fundamental Harmonic Approximation (FHA) analysis favored engineers by alleviating obstacles in analysis, loss computation, and optimization by reducing complex resonant converter into a mere Resistance-Inductance-Capacitance (RLC) circuit. However, to improve the …

Abstract:
Usually, the parallel-compensated inductive power transfer (IPT) topology fed by a current-source inverter is controlled through variable switching frequency and fixed 50% duty cycle method. This enables the system to …
