Abstract: Modular coil assemblies for wireless charging of vehicles have coil geometries and communications designed to limit electromagnetic field (EMF) levels in regions where humans or other living objects may be present. The modular coil assemblies are designed with the ability to shape the magnetic field to be predominately within shielding provided by the auto chassis by, for example, providing side-by-side phase cancellation or diagonal versus front-to-back (for 1×3, 2×3 array configurations) phase cancellation. The power levels and frequency offset pairwise compensation of the respective coils may be controlled to improve suppression of both the fundamental and harmonic signals and thus to reduce magnetic field exposure potential. The phase cancellation of the magnetic flux density from respective coil assemblies varies over a range to provide, for example, ˜50% suppression at 125° offset and up to ˜100% suppression at 180°.

Abstract: A thin resonant induction wireless power transmission transfer coil assembly designed for low loss and ease of manufacturing includes one or more printed circuit boards having a first conductor pattern wound in a spiral on a first side and a second conductor pattern wound in a spiral on a second side thereof, where the second conductor pattern is aligned with the first conductor pattern whereby the second conductor pattern reinforces magnetic flux generated by the first conductor pattern. At least one electrical connection electrically connects the respective conductors of the first and second conductor patterns and the first and second conductor patterns are placed relative to one another so as to provide uniform flux transmission in a same direction. One or more of such printed circuit boards form a wireless power transmission coil assembly with a conductive winding layer, a ferrite flux diversion layer, conformal spacing layers, an eddy current shield layer and an assembly enclosure.

Abstract: A resonant induction wireless power transfer coil assembly designed for low loss includes a wireless power transfer coil, a non-saturated backing core layer adjacent the wireless power transfer coil, an eddy current shield, a gap layer between the backing core layer and the eddy current shield, and an enclosure that encloses the wireless power transfer coil, backing core layer, gap layer and eddy current shield. The gap layer has a thickness in a thickness range for a given thickness of the backing core layer where eddy current loss in the eddy current shield is substantially flat over the thickness range. A thickness of the backing core layer and a thickness of the gap layer are selected where a total power loss comprising power loss in the backing core layer plus eddy current loss over the gap layer is substantially minimized.
