High-efficiency and compact WPT receiving antenna design using simulation optimization method

초록

In this paper, a high-efficiency and compact wireless power transfer (WPT) receiving antenna using an flexible printed circuits board (FPCB) with high-Q factor is proposed. The proposed high-efficiency and compact WPT receiving antenna consists of a spiral structure, a lumped element and via through the ground structure. In this paper, in order to design a miniaturized high-efficiency WPT receiving antenna, machine learning technology was used to optimally design the antenna pattern that affects the Q factor. The designed receiving antenna has improved wireless power transmission efficiency with high Q characteristics. The power transfer efficiency is above 88% from distance 10 mm and the resonant frequency is 110 MHz. The sizes of the receiving antenna and the NFC antenna are 30 × 40 mm and 20 × 30 mm, respectively. Machine learning was used to design and fabricate the composite module of a WPT receiving antenna and NFC antenna. Comparison of the experimental results of the proposed receiving antenna with a general receiving antenna confirms the improvement in transmission efficiency. © The Author(s) 2021.
