Recent　years　have　witnessed　the　booming　development　of　electric　vehicles　(EVs).　Wireless　charging　for　EVs　has　been　extensively　studied　due　to　its　advantages　of　automation,　safety,　and　convenience.　One　of　the　main　obstacles　facing　EV　wireless　charging　is　misalignment　tolerance.　This　paper　proposed　a　novel　misalignment　tolerant　compact　EV　wireless　charging　system　based　on　the　hybrid　compensation　topology,　which　was　a　series　connection　of　the　LCC-S　and　the　S-S　topologies.　A　set　of　unipolar　coils　and　a　set　of　quadrupole　coils　were　employed　as　the　power　transmission　coils　of　both　topologies　in　the　EV　wireless　charging　system　to　improve　misalignment　tolerance　on　both　the　moving　direction　and　the　door-to-door　direction.　The　primary　quadrupole　coil　was　utilized　both　as　the　transmitting　coil　and　as　the　compensating　inductor　of　the　LCC-S　topology,　realizing　a　compact　and　low-cost　structure.　The　proposed　system　achieved　good　misalignment　tolerance　on　both　directions.　Experimental　results　validate　the　proposed　wireless　charging　system.　©　2022　Chin.　Soc.　for　Elec.　Eng.
