TL;DR: In this article, a novel isolated topology was proposed to meet the high efficiency over a wide input voltage range requirement for maximum power point tracking in PV power conditioning systems. But the performance of this topology is limited due to the low currents, zero-voltage switching (ZVS) and low-current switching of the primary side devices, and direct power transfer to the load for the majority of switching cycle.

TL;DR: A T-equivalent circuit for loosely coupled transformer, which does not involve magnetic coupling, is presented and a detailed dynamic analysis based on extended describing function technique is presented for a series-series compensated inductive power transfer system.

TL;DR: In this article, a contactless charging system for an electric vehicle (EV) battery is proposed, which consists of three parts: 1) a high-frequency power supply from a full-bridge inverter with frequency modulation; 2) a loosely coupled transformer that utilizes series resonant capacitors for both the primary and secondary windings; and 3) a rectification output circuit that uses a fullbridge diode rectifier.

TL;DR: In this article, a series-series compensated inductive power transfer system (IPT) with theoretical analysis and experimental results is discussed. And the authors propose a two-stage structure, which includes a PFC stage and a resonant DC-DC stage operating in ZVS region.
