This paper proposes a detailed analysis of the incomplete coupling effect in omnidirectional wireless power transfer systems and a compensation method aiming to improve the transmission performance. Recently, omnidirectional wireless charging technologies have been gradually explored and studied. These charging technologies can transmit power to arbitrary directions in three-dimensional space. However, there are still specific regions where the transmitted power capability dramatically drops to an extremely low level due to the incomplete coupling effect. Accordingly, this paper provides a theoretical analysis and compensation of such an effect. The compensation effectiveness is validated by both a simulation and a 7 W experimental prototype. After the compensation, the transmitted power can be improved by 61% to drive the load in a full range of the space.

The free-positioning wireless power transfer (WPT) system has drawn attention in recent years. Traditionally, a WPT system can transfer energy in one or two directions on the same plane, but it leads the restrictions of angle and axis misalignment between a transmitter and a receiver coil. In this paper, we propose a free-positioning WPT system using a three-dimensional cubic-shaped transmitting coil for portable device charging. A small receiving coil is placed inside the transmitter to achieve the transferred energy through the magnetic resonant coupling. In addition, the equivalent circuit and the mutual inductance between the Tx and Rx coils are analyzed. Finally, a practical experiment is implemented to verify the transfer performance, which can reach up to about 50% power transfer efficiency. The proposed system can charge in spatial freedom.
