1. Primary side
The photo voltaic (or) Solar panel will be used in the initialization process of the circuit which generates the
power for the whole operation. It absorbs energy from the solar radiation and this heat energy will be converted
into electrical energy, this will be supplied throughout the circuit. Inverters will be used for converting the DC
to AC, power generated by the solar panel will be the DC, these DC power will convert into AC power which it
is given to the coil. The inverters consist of four n-channel MOSFET switches these switches needs the
triggering pulses for the ON and OFF process, these triggering pulses will be generated using the PIC controller.
This PIC controller will generate a triggering pulse of 5v DC. But the MOSFET switches needs a minimum of 10
– 12v DC for operating the voltages. For the amplification process the driver board will be used. Output of the
PIC controller will be given to the driver board, it starts amplifying the triggering pulse that the output of the
driver board will be given to the inverter. This driver board output will be connected to the gate terminal of the
MOSFET switches. After the conversion of power it will be transferred to the coil through the compensation
network.
2. Secondary side
The coil from the primary side gets energize and it creates the magnetic field around the coil. Due to the using
of high frequency output, the creation of magnetic flux will be very strong. The flux from the primary coil links
the secondary coil. Hence the power will be transferred between the coils through the magnetic field. Next the
power from the secondary coil given to the rectifier. After the rectifier the LED which indicate the power
transfer to the coil. By using the rectifier AC supply will be converted into DC supply and then it is given to the
booster circuit responsible for the steady output. After that it will be filtered by using the compensation network
and finally connected to the DC shunt motor (Toy car motor). The solar panel power supply will be given to the
motor. Due to the continuous generation of power via solar panel, it helps for non-stop driving.

RESULT
This figure shows the whole experimental setup which includes the solar panels, controller boards and the
various hardware parameters of the hardware setup. After the completion of the hardware we moved to the
further testing process for checking the efficiency of the hardware. It gives nearly good results compared to the
existing system. We use the solar energy as the input source for getting a quick result solar panel will exposed to
the solar radiation for a certain time. The panel gets heated up and the power collected from the panel will be
transferred to the inverter block. The inverter consists of MOSFET switches which includes in the power
conversion. When the MOSFET switches activated using the triggering pulse generated from the PIC controller
and the power will be transferred from DC to AC. The AC supply will be given to the primary coil gets energize
creates the magnetic field or flux in the primary side. Flux created in the primary side links the secondary coil
and the EMF will be transferred wirelessly between the coils. Transferred power in the secondary coil will be
indicated by using the LED after it will be moved to the rectifier circuit AC converted to DC will be injected to
the booster circuit and the various harmonics will be neglected by the compensation networks and finally the
power will be given to the Electrical Vehicle [EV} motor.
CONCLUSION
In this study, we are presenting the various technologies related to Wireless Power Transfer system, which is
used to avoid the flux leakage and short circuits occurred due to the cables. This will be helpful for those who
are doing research in the area of wireless power transmission. The wireless Power Transmission is used to
operate the cars with high efficiency and improve the quality parameters. This project is in the progress of
generating power source through renewal energy.
