N2 - The dynamic wireless power transfer (DWPT) or in-motion charging of electric vehicles (EVs) may alleviate the challenges encountered by the plug-in charging systems and assist in the penetration of the EVs at a larger scale. Similar to its stationary charging counterpart, DPWT also makes use of compensation circuits to reduce the inductive reactance for enabling higher current on the coupler winding and improve the power transfer. However, the behavior of compensation circuits has not been comprehensively analyzed in a DWPT system. This paper analyzes in detail the performance of three compensation topologies applied to the DWPT system. A combination of finite element analysis (FEA) and circuit analysis is employed to study the compensation topologies when the receiving coil moves over the transmitting coil. Moreover, the variations in operating frequency have also been considered in the analysis. Furthermore, the theoretical calculations for the dynamic WPT system are verified using PLECS simulation model.
