A wireless power feeding control apparatus for a vehicle includes a positioning unit and an examination unit. The vehicle is provided with a power receiving coil that wirelessly receives electrical power from a power transmitting coil of a power transmission facility, a parking lock mechanism, and a parking lock sensor that outputs an electrical signal corresponding to a locked state of a wheel established by the parking lock mechanism. The positioning unit positions the power transmitting coil or assists in positioning the power transmitting coil on the basis of a quantity of electricity generated by the power receiving coil receiving a magnetic field from the power transmitting coil subjected to weak excitation weaker than excitation during electrical power transmission. The examination unit checks the locked state of the wheel after the weak excitation is stopped and before the electrical power transmission is started.

A non-contact charging station with a planar-spiral power transmission core, a non-contact power-receiving apparatus, and a method for controlling the same. A primary core of the non-contact charging station transmitting a power signal to a portable device using an induced magnetic field and a secondary core of the non-contact power-receiving apparatus are configured as a power transmission Printed Circuit Board (PCB) core in which a planar-spiral core structure is formed on a core base. The power transmission PCB core has a simplified shape along with improved applicability that facilitates its mounting on a non-contact charger. In addition, the receiving core has a reduced volume to reduce the entire size of the power-receiving apparatus so that it can be easily mounted onto a portable device.

A high performance kilowatt-scale large air-gap multi-modular capacitive wireless power transfer (WPT) system is provided for electric vehicle (EV) charging. In one particular implementation, the multi-modular system achieves high power transfer while maintaining fringing electric fields within prescribed safety limits. The fringing fields are reduced using near-field phased-array field-focusing techniques, wherein the adjacent modules of the multi-modular system are out-phased with respect to one another. The inter-module interactions in this multi-modular system can be modeled, and an approach to eliminate these interactions in a practical EV charging environment is provided. To illustrate one example implementation, a prototype 1.2-kW 6.78-MHz 12-cm air-gap multi-modular capacitive WPT system comprising two 600-W modules is provided. This prototype system achieves 21.2 kW/m.sup.2 power transfer density and a peak efficiency of 89.8%. This multi-modular system also achieves a fringing field reduction of 50% compared to its individual modules.
