WIRELESS POWER TRANSFER FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLES AN ARDUINO-BASED PROTOTYPE EV WITH BLUETOOTH CONTROL

Wireless power transfer (WPT) technology has significant potential for electric vehicles (EVs), as it can provide a convenient and safe way to charge EVs without the need for physical cables and plugs. WPT for EVs typically uses magnetic induction or resonant coupling to transfer energy wirelessly from a charging pad on the ground to a receiver coil on the vehicle. The WPT system design consists of a transmitter coil installed under the road and a receiver coil mounted on the base of the EV. It is based on the principle of mutual inductance and uses resonant coupling to transfer power wirelessly.
