Monitoring and Controlling Wireless Power Transfer System Performance via IoT

This research focuses on the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technology for monitoring and controlling the performance of wireless power transfer (WPT) systems. Overall, WPT allows for the transmission of electrical energy without the use of physical connections, which provides simplicity and flexibility. The proposed framework incorporates IoT capabilities into the WPT system allowing for real-time monitoring and control. IoT devices deployed throughout the system collect data on parameters such as power transmission efficiency, temperature, voltage, and current. The experimental result shows the transmitter and receiver for coil inductance by using 30 turns with 0.5 mm diameter helical and spiral copper coils. Whereby, 145.00 µH inductance was entered to the transmitter and 165.00 µH for the receiver of the helical coil. Alternatively, the spiral coil inductance for the transmitter and receiver was 106.98 µH and 110.00 µH respectively. Following that, the output voltage for the WPT with load is 2.35 V at 10 mm distance, which is higher than 0.08 V at 50 mm distance between coils. Next, it is noteworthy that the output voltage for the WPT without load exceeded the output voltage with load, which is 10.47 V at a 10 mm distance and 0.34 V at a 50 mm distance. This research advances WPT technology by demonstrating the convenient of IoT-enabled monitoring and control. The proposed framework increases the overall performance efficiency of WPT systems, making them ideal for use in industries such as automotive, consumer electronics, and healthcare.
