Embodiment Construction

[0094] Generally, the present invention is characterized by a control and protection system for one-way and two-way wireless power transmission systems. The implementation includes sensors and protection networks to protect the wireless power transmission system from various dangerous conditions, including overvoltage, overcurrent, overtemperature, and sudden changes in power that may damage the system. The implementation includes a control system for managing the shutdown of wireless power transmission system components (eg, tunable matching network, inverter, rectifier, and inverter-rectifier) ​​in response to protection actions. The implementation includes a control system and processing for managing the reverse of power flow in a two-way wireless power transmission system.

[0095] Figure 1A It is a diagram of an equivalent model of an exemplary wireless power transmitter 100 (also referred to as a wireless power supply or grounding assembly (GA)). The wireless power transmi...

Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for protecting a wireless power transfer system. One aspect features a sensor network for a wireless power transfer system. The sensor network includes a differential voltage sensing circuit and a current sensing circuit. The differential voltage sensing circuit is arranged within a wireless power transfer system to measure a rate of change of a voltage difference between portions of an impedance matching network and generate a first signal representing the rate of change of the voltage difference. The current sensing circuit is coupled to the differential voltagesensing circuit and configured to calculate, based on the first signal, a current through a resonator coil coupled to the wireless power transfer system.
