Abstract

In this paper, two types of high frequency distribution systems, constant current and a combination of voltage and current (hybrid) architectures, are presented which are suitable for connectorless power transfer. A detailed description along with the operating principles for both systems are given. A performance comparison of both the systems is presented in terms of overall conversion and distribution losses, electromagnetic interference and implementation complexity. Finally, `proof-of-concept´ for both the systems is experimentally verified
