This paper discusses the characteristics of a series-series compensated inductive power transfer system (IPT) with theoretical analysis and experimental results. To maximize system efficiency, two-stage structure, which includes a PFC stage and a resonant DC-DC stage operating in ZVS region, is proposed. One of the major design challenges in implementation of a practical contactless EV charger is the variation of the coupling condition of the loosely coupled transformer. This combined with the battery charger's wide range load variation makes parameters design of the resonant DC-DC stage more complex. To optimize the parameter design for all coupling and load conditions, a parameter sweeping method is proposed. The design procedure searches parameters set to minimize the averaged primary current while keeping the voltage stress across the primary capacitor below the preset limit; both the high coupling and low coupling conditions are considered. To validate the analysis, a 4 kW resonant DC-DC prototype was built and tested. At 4 cm gap distance with 0.526 coupling coefficient, an efficiency of 97% for the DC-DC stage was achieved with output power range from 0.8 kW to 4 kW.
