Roadway powered electric vehicles with minimal or no onboard energy storage have been proposed for many years, but the concept has only recently become feasible via three-phase inductive power transfer (IPT) systems. A wide zone can be created over which power transfer is relatively constant. This gives good tolerance to the alignment of the pickup relative to the track allowing simple low-cost pickup structures to be used. While three-phase IPT tracks make the vehicle pickup and power transfer simpler, they are difficult for the power supply to drive due to the presence of mutual coupling between the track phases resulting from the physical layout of the track. These mutual inductances induce voltages within each track phase that, because of the inductor-capacitor-inductor network, cause large currents within the power supply inverter and imbalances within the system. This paper presents an analytical assessment of the problems caused by the interphase mutual inductance, and three possible solutions. Two of the methods involve modifications to the track layout to alter or remove the mutual inductances, while the third and preferred technique requires additional ferrite cores between the various phases to compensate this adverse mutual inductance without affecting the power transfer to the pickup loads.
