Abstract

Two-stage wireless power receivers, which typically include an ac-dc diode rectifier and a dc-dc regulator, are popular solutions in low-power wireless power transfer applications. However, the interaction between the rectifier and the regulator may introduce beat frequency oscillation on both the dc-link and output capacitors. In this article, the cause of the beat frequency oscillation and its related issues are investigated with the corresponding design solution on alleviating the oscillation discussed. Theoretical and experimental results verifying the presence of beat frequency oscillation in the two-stage wireless receiver system are provided. Our study shows that the beat frequency oscillation can be significantly alleviated if appropriate design solutions are applied.
