Full-Duplex Communication on the Shared Channel of a Capacitively Coupled Power Transfer System

摘要

This paper proposed a novel wireless power transfer system with full-duplex communication on a shared channel for capacitively coupled power transfer systems. For the analysis of power and signal transmission, a frequency-domain model of the power and signal channels is established. Based on this model, the signal transfer characteristic of the channel and the influence of power flow on the signal channel are analyzed. Moreover, to ensure the power and signal transfer without unacceptable interference or attenuation, a parameters selection method of the communication channel is developed. In addition, an interference suppression strategy by taking the interference from the ipsilateral channel into consideration is proposed. To suppress the interference effectively, an estimation of the ipsilateral channel output signal is made. Then, the signal from the opposite channel is demodulated by removing the estimated values of the interference. Both simulation and experimental results showed have proven the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed wireless power and signal transfer method. Finally, it has demonstrated that the designed channel can transfer 100 W of power, and a full-duplex communication can be well achieved with different data rates in two directions when both two data rates are set within 200 kb/s.
