Abstract

This report contains the design and implementation of two control systems related to an inductive power transfer system. This IPT system charges a battery at maximumefficiency and constant power using a buck converter. A linear controller has been designed around the buck converter and implemented on a FPGA tomatch impedance for maximum efficiency. A second controller has been designed at the inverter to implement charging at constant power. The control signals for the inverter at the primary side and the PWM generator for the buck converter are also implemented on a FPGA and tested. The control systems have only been simulated.
