“…The basic element of the contactless power supply system is the high frequency CET transformer, whose primary and secondary windings are maintained in the resonant state -using additional capacitors (X1 = X2 = 0) [3,9,13,14,22]. The circuit diagram used to describe the steady-state condition of the sine wave voltage supply [4,21] is shown in Fig.…”

This project has not yet been implemented for transport applications but has nevertheless been tested on a test track for scale vehicles. A fragment of track in scale was recently presented at the Hannover Fair at the SciTech Poland "scientific" Polish stand [7,28].The already mentioned power supply is a contactless, dynamic power system, which means that it can deliver energy to the vehicle in motion as opposed to stationary systems where energy is delivered only when the vehicle is stationary. The drive motor is a linear induction motor. This system solution illustrates one of the many possibilities that can be applied to the driving and powering of this type of vehicle. The power supply can also be made as a contact one with power points at parking places. Propulsion motors can be made as brushless, induction and wheeled or as central units. On the other hand, the contactless power supply has the advantage of being a safe system [23,30]. The supply energy is transmitted inductively from the primary winding distributed along the track -similarly to the third rail in the metro. The fundamental difference between the contact supply by means of the third rail and the contactless induction is that the contact rail "power" is isolated and thus safe.

“…At the same time, the development in the areas of electrical energy storage and contactless power transmission opens new possibilities for control and power flow management [9,10]. Hence, these possibilities should be taken into account in the context of an electrical smart grid, where the significance of power electronics converters is growing.…”

Abstract. Continuous development of intelligent network applications drives the demand for deployment-ready hardware and software solutions. Such solutions are highly valued not only by distributed producers of energy but by energy consumers as well. The use of intelligent network applications enables the development and improvement of the quality of services. It also increases self-sufficiency and efficiency. This paper describes an example of such device that allows for the control of a dual active bridge (DAB) converter and enables its remote control in real time over an IP-based network. The details of both hardware and software components of proposed implementation are provided. The DAB converter gives a possibility to control and manage the energy between two DC power systems with very different voltage levels. Not only information, but also the quality of energy, the direction of power flow, and energy storage systems can be easily controlled through an IP-based network and power electronics converters. Information technology, together with intelligent control of power electronics technology, provides a flexible solution, especially for sustainable smart grids.Key words: ARM processor, DAB converter controller, networked controller, Web-based user interface, energy control.Implementation of a Web-based remote control system for qZS DAB application using low-cost ARM platform infrastructure and tuned to facilitate the integration of all involved". It became truly multidisciplinary, as it attracts research and development not only by electrical engineers, but also by entrepreneurs, economists, sociologists, politicians, lawyers, and finally, IT-specialists [12,13]. However, a smart grid is not only smart metering, but also smart controlling of the energy conversion process and power flow management (flow direction, energy storage and conditioning). The two most recent decades were dedicated to Internet communication. The next two or more decades will not be focused only on the Internet, but also on the Energy Net network, where it is the energy that will be managed, instead of information [14]. The tools necessary to implement this vision are microchips like digital signal processors (DSPs), complex programmable logic devices (CPLDs), field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) or advanced RISC machines (ARMs) to, in real time, control transistors and thyristors switching in different types of power electronics converters. Because the technology of reduced instruction set computer (RISC) is flexible and achieved a sufficient level of maturity, the price of ARM devices became very competitive. That leverages the ARM platform as a suitable tool to handle intelligence communication and at the same time provide robust operation at a reasonable price [15]. This ARM-based solution provides the environment for real-time communication using different protocols.The paper is focused on an ARM-based solution for the control and Web-based management of a DC-DC power elec-

“…The applications of the WPT systems have been growing in number: clean-room systems, material handling monorail-based systems (often, automotive assembly) when the environment is extremely dirty, slow-moving automatic guided vehicles (AGVs) with track-following navigation, and the battery-charging systems. Other applications are in the biomedicine, the aerospace systems, the electric vehicles and the robotics [7][8]. There are three conditions that all wireless power systems must satisfy to work as battery charger: to obtain high efficiency, to support large air gaps and to transmit a high power [4].…”

-The spatial distribution of the magnetic field and the coupling between the coils in the Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) systems is an important aspect to consider in the system design and efficiency optimization. The presented study in this paper is based on tests performed on a physical model. The transmitting (primary) equipment, is an electrical three-phase system, capable to be connected in star or delta (both electrically and geometrically). The measured results allow to describe graphically the magnetic field distribution in three dimensions. The analytical formulas aim to help to understand and to quantify the physical phenomena but they cannot be considered a universal approach and the measurement results help to understand better the observable facts. In the WPT, the key issues that will influence the efficiency, are the alignment of the coils, the spatial orientation of the magnetic field, the detachment and the tilt between the windings, all they changing the magnetic coupling between the transmitter and the receiver of energy. This research is directed not only to the magnetic field distribution but finally, to optimize the energy transfer efficiency.
