Abstract :
This paper, presents the LCL resonant tank DC-DC converter for a wireless power transfer plant. The studied converter can transmit power wirelessly and following a proper design could reach a zero current and voltage switching. The operations of the WPT are analyzed in the buck mode. A simple controlling system is used to have a constant output voltage. The LCL resonant tank wireless power transfer plant can be used as a wireless switching mode power supply. Some experimental outcomes on a laboratory testbed of the WPT plant are presented to verify the performance of the presented converter.
