Wireless Electric Vehicle Charging Robot (Movable Charging Station)

Abstract

With the rising number of electric and hybrid vehicles the demand for customer-friendly and innovative solutions for the charging infrastructure is growing steadily. Furthermore, future autonomous driving and parking vehicles are calling for new approaches regarding to battery charging. Nowadays electric vehicles have to be charged by hand. Usually, electric vehicle systems are based on various modules that should ensure the high power and stability of the vehicle on the track. The majority of these components are linked to the charging mechanism. In this regard, dynamic wireless power transfer is a practical method to solve electric vehicle range anxiety and reduce the cost of onboard batteries. Wireless recharging has long been common with pure electric vehicles and is designed to allow charging even when the vehicle is in motion. In other words, someone has to connect the charging cable with the charging socket of the vehicle. This paper deals with automated charging systems for electric vehicles. As worlds resources are diminishing, govt. agencies and nongovernment organization are pushing greener solution through the use of renewable energy sources, as electric power must become less dependent on fossils fuel and transportation must become more electric to decrease carbon emission and mitigate climate change. Hence in order to reduce the pollution through the motor vehicles, electric vehicles are being invented and in order to run the electric vehicle the fuel required is the electricity which can be storable through the use of solar energy and run these electric vehicles through the electric vehicle smart charging station which is the promising alternative and environmentally sustainable solution to meet up to the energy crisis.
