WARRENDALE, Pa., Dec. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- SAE International announces the publication of the first Technical Information Report (TIR) that specifies, in a single document, both electric vehicle (EV) and ground-system requirements for heavy-duty (HD) wireless charging of EVs. SAE TIR J2954/2 Wireless Power Transfer & Alignment for Heavy-Duty Applications paves the way for charging HD vehicles without the need for plugging in – widely considered to be a key enabler for accelerating the adoption of EVs and autonomous vehicles. This new guideline builds off the success of the first light-duty SAE J2954 standard published in 2020. The SAE TIR J2954/2 exponentially increases the power level of Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) for heavy-duty vehicles.

Key Points: 
  • The SAE TIR J2954/2 exponentially increases the power level of Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) for heavy-duty vehicles.
  • "Charging a heavy-duty EV should be as simple as parking in the right spot – the wireless charging SAE TIR J2954/2 Guideline makes it possible to do that automatically," stated Jesse Schneider, chair of the SAE Wireless Power Transfer Task Force (ZEV Station).
  • "The SAE TIR J2954/2 is a game-changer guideline enabling ultra-fast wireless charging to 500kW, for both trucks and buses.
  • SAE J2954 recently published an updated Version 2 of its SAE J2954 light-duty standard for wireless power transfer for electric vehicles.

Korea Maritime and Ocean University Scientists Develop Pulse Position Modulation for Low-power Consuming Information Decoding and Enhanced Power Transfer Performance

Thursday, December 1, 2022

BUSAN, South Korea, Dec. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) is a promising technology to connect and energize low-power devices wirelessly over a long distance. The radio frequency-based technique would thus enable the Internet of Things in the future. However, state-of-the-art low-power SWIPT receivers still consume much more energy for communication than the amount they can harvest, which hinders further development and growth of the Internet-of-Things (IoT) ecosystem.

Key Points: 
  • Recently, Dr. Junghoon Kim of the Korea Maritime and Ocean University and his colleague, have proposed a novel signal design for SWIPT with IntRx architecture.
  • To begin with, they modified a conventional pulse position modulation scheme (M-PPM) to make it suitable for SWIPT IntRx.
  • To sum up, the comprehensive research confirms the feasibility and outstanding performance of the new modulation method, whichcan improve power transfer efficiency and reduce power consumption for information decoding.
