Deployment Optimization of Dynamic Wireless Electric Vehicle Charging Systems: A Review

摘要

To alleviate the range anxiety fear of electric vehicle (EV) drivers, dynamic wireless charging (DWC) systems are being developed to supply energy to the EV during its motion, thereby compensating for EV energy consumption and extending the vehicle’s driving range. Nevertheless, several challenges are involved in the commercial deployment of on-road DWC systems, particularly with respect to the associated deployment costs and EV energy demand. Accordingly, extensive research is conducted to optimize the deployment of DWC systems within a city infrastructure while addressing the different challenges to encourage mass adoption of EVs and improve their reliability. In this work, a review of current state-of-the-art research into optimizing the deployment of dynamic EV wireless charging facilities is presented, to provide a set of guidelines on the formulation and optimal deployment of DWC systems. In addition, on-the-move V2V energy exchange is also addressed as an additional dynamic charging solution to complement on-road charging systems.
