There is a need for charging electric vehicles (EVs) wirelessly since it provides a more convenient, reliable, and safer charging option for EV customers. A wireless charging system using a double-sided LCC compensation topology is proven to be highly efficient; however, the large volume induced by the compensation coils is a drawback. In order to make the system more compact, this paper proposes a new method to integrate the compensated coil into the main coil structure. With the proposed method, not only is the system more compact, but also the extra coupling effects resulting from the integration are either eliminated or minimized to a negligible level. Three-dimensional finite-element analysis tool ANSYS MAXWELL is employed to optimize the integrated coils, and detailed design procedures on improving system efficiency are also given in this paper. The wireless charging system with the proposed integration method is able to transfer 3.0 kW with 95.5% efficiency (overall dc to dc) at an air gap of 150 mm.
