Abstract:
A receiver unit of a wireless power transfer system is presented. The receiver unit includes a main receiver coil, a plurality of auxiliary receiver coils disposed about a central axis of the main receiver coil, and a receiver drive subunit. The receiver drive subunit includes a main converter operatively coupled to the main receiver coil and having a main output terminal. The receiver drive subunit may include a plurality of auxiliary converters operatively coupled to the plurality of auxiliary receiver coils. The plurality of auxiliary converters may be operatively coupled to each other to form an auxiliary output terminal coupled in series to the main output terminal to form a common output terminal. In some implementations, the receiver drive unit may be formed on a substrate of an integrated electronic component. The integrated electronic component may further include a communication subunit and a controller disposed.
