The low coupling coefficient between the transmitter and receiver is the major constraint of a wireless power transfer (WPT) system. Although some approaches, such as increasing the quality factor and achieving precise impedance matching, can reduce the adverse impacts of the low coupling coefficient and improve the system performance, high leakage magnetic flux between the transmitter and receiver remains a problem. With the increase in transfer distance and the misalignment between the transmitter and receiver, the increasing leakage magnetic flux of nondirectional fields degrades the WPT system performance. This paper proposes an active field orientation method to shape the magnetic flux so as to minimize the leakage flux. The amplitude and phase angle of the magnetizing current are controlled, and a coil structure for minimizing the coupling among the transmitters and generating a three-dimensional magnetic field is proposed. This method realizes three-dimension full-range field orientation with adjustable magnitude and direction of B-field at an arbitrary point, and as a result the B-field is concentrated with reduced leakage magnetic flux. The proposed field orientation shaping technique is verified by theoretical analysis, simulation, and experimental results.
