    Abstract: A dynamic wireless power transfer base pad can include a housing, a first conductor, a second conductor, and a third conductor. The first conductor can be disposed within the housing substantially along a circumference and can be configured to conduct a first current to produce a first magnetic field. The second conductor can be disposed at a first end within the housing and can be configured to conduct a second current to produce a second magnetic field. A magnetic field at the first end can include a constructive superimposition of the first magnetic field with the second magnetic field. The third conductor can be disposed at a second end within the housing and can be configured to conduct a third current to produce a third magnetic field. A magnetic field at the second end can include a constructive superimposition of the first magnetic field with the third magnetic field.

    Abstract: An apparatus for inductive power transfer (“IPT”) includes an active bridge section with input terminals that receive power from a constant current source, where the active bridge section operates at a fixed switching frequency, a primary resonant capacitor connected in series with an output terminal of the active bridge section, and a primary IPT coil connected in series with the primary resonant capacitor, where power is transferred wirelessly between the primary IPT coil and a secondary IPT coil, and the secondary IPT coil is connected in series with a secondary resonant capacitor, which is connected in series with an output rectifier section that receives power from the secondary IPT coil and comprising output terminals for connection to a load. The apparatus includes a controller that regulates output voltage to the load, where the controller regulates output voltage to the load by controlling switching of the active bridge section.

    Abstract: An apparatus for a wireless power transfer (“WPT”) pad heat management system includes a ferrite structure positioned adjacent to a coil configured to wirelessly transfer power. The apparatus includes a plurality of heat spreaders positioned along a length of a component of the ferrite structure. Each of the plurality of heat spreaders is non-metallic. The apparatus includes a trough shaped to surround at least a portion of each of the plurality of heat spreaders, wherein the trough is non-metallic. The apparatus includes a phase change material (“PCM”) in the trough where at least a portion of the heat spreaders extend into the PCM. The ferrite structure, coil, plurality of heat spreaders, trough and PCM are encased in a solid material, and each of the plurality of heat spreaders comprises a material that transfers heat from the component of the ferrite structure to the PCM.
