Wireless power transfer impact on data channel

This paper presents measurement results and analysis of the interference produced by the high-power electromagnetic field in a wireless energy transfer system. Through this analysis it is expected to be possible to evaluate the influence of the strong electromagnetic field on the data transmission channel. The wireless power transfer aimed at electric vehicles battery charging receives a great deal of attention in the recent years. However, the performance of those systems depends on the exchange of information between the transmitter and the receiver, e.g. vehicle identification, frequency, required power, payment information. Thus, it is essential to ensure that the electromagnetic interference, generated by the wireless power transfer system will not influence or disrupt the communication between the transmitter and the receiver.
