Abstract:

Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) systems based on inductive coupling are very useful because they allow a safe and comfortable charging procedure of the batteries in EVs. However, the WPT systems are intentional sources of time varying magnetic field and the field levels can be very high due to the relevant power required by the charging process. One of the main concerns is the compliance of the emitted magnetic fields with the EMC and EMF safety standards and regulations. The presentation will describe some recent modeling results obtained in the framework of collaborative projects in order to evaluate the human exposure. The investigation of full wave numerical models and the use of stochastic methods will be illustrated in simplified but realistic configurations.

Biography:

Lionel Pichon received the Dip. Eng. from Ecole Supérieure d'Ingénieurs en Electronique et Electrotechnique in 1984. In 1985 he joined the Laboratoire de Génie Electrique de Paris where he earned a PhD in electrical engineering in 1989. He got a position at the CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique) in 1989. He is now Directeur de Recherche (Senior Research Scientist) at the CNRS. His research interests include computational electromagnetics for wave propagation, scattering and electromagnetic compatibility. He is author or co-author of more than 110 journal papers.
