Summary: | Recently, the Electric Vehicle (EV) market has
experienced significant growth and is projected to expand
exponentially with the advancement of technology. Major
industries are increasingly adopting the concept of producing
hybrid or fully electric cars, resulting in electric vehicles
becoming a common sight in today’s era. This research
examines the potential of wireless power transfer systems as an alternative method of charging electric automobiles. Despite the widespread use of traditional plug-in charging, wireless charging proves to be more effective and convenient. The study evaluates various approaches to integrating wireless charging into an electric vehicle prototype, represented by a remote control car. It also explores the background and advancements of wireless charging technology. By optimising the design of the transmitter and receiver, based on circuits used for mobile phone chargers, the necessary power (5V, 2A) is provided to the remote-controlled car. Voltage regulators are utilized to manage the output voltage of the receiver circuit during simulations, which assess the circuit’s performance under different conditions. The results suggest that wireless charging could serve as a practical and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional charging methods.
