ABSTRACT
The high penetration of electric vehicles (EVs) will burden the existing power delivery
infrastructure if their charging and discharging are not adequately coordinated.
Dynamic pricing is a special form of demand response that can encourage EV owners
to participate in scheduling programs. Therefore, EV charging and discharging
scheduling and its dynamic pricing model are important fields of study. Many
researchers have focused on artificial intelligence-based EV charging demand
forecasting and scheduling models and suggested that artificial intelligence techniques
perform better than conventional optimization methods such as linear, exponential,
and multinomial logit models. However, only a few research studies focused on EV
discharging scheduling (i.e., vehicle-to-grid, V2G) because the concept of EV
discharging electricity back to the power grid is relatively new and evolving.

INTRODUCTION
1.INTRODUCTION:
Usually, electric vehicle systems are based on various modules that should ensure the high power
and stability of the vehicle on the track. The majority of these components are linked to the
charging mechanism. In this regard, dynamic wireless power transfer is a practical method to
solve electric vehicle range anxiety and reduce the cost of onboard batteries. Wireless recharging
has long been common with pure electric vehicles and is designed to allow charging even when
the vehicle is in motion. However, it is difficult to analyze this method since its operating
philosophy is complex, particularly with the existence of several variables and parameters. Also,
the state of the vehicle, whether it is in motion or not, defines several parameters such as the
vehicle speed as well as the sizes and dimensions of the coil receivers. This paper presents a novel
method to improve the performance of the dynamic wireless recharge system. In the proposed
system, receiver coils have been added to maximize charging power by offering a dynamic
mathematical model that can describe and measure source-to-vehicle power transmission even
though it is in motion. In the proposed mathematical model, all physical parameters describing the
model were presented and discussed. The results showed the effectiveness of the proposed model.
Also, the experimental tests confirmed the validity of the simulation results obtained by providing
two coil receivers under the vehicle.
An electric vehicle (EV) is a vehicle that uses one or more electric motors or traction
motors for propulsion. An electric vehicle may be powered through a collector system by
electricity from off-vehicle sources, or may be self-contained with a battery, solar panels, fuel
cells or an electric generator to convert fuel to electricity [4]. EVs include, but are not limited to,
road and rail vehicles, surface and underwater vessels, electric aircraft and electric spacecraft. EVs
first came into existence in the mid-19th century, when electricity was among the preferred
methods for motor vehicle propulsion, providing a level of comfort and ease of operation that
could not be achieved by the gasoline cars of the time. Modern internal combustion engines have
been the dominant propulsion method for motor vehicles for almost 100 years, but electric power
has remained commonplace in other vehicle types, such as trains and smaller vehicles of all types.
During any energy conversion there will be losses in going from one form to another.
The magnitude of those losses is what dictates the practicality of any type of wireless charging.
Magnetic or inductive charging, in particular has been effectively used for some time to power
2|Page
various kinds of biomedical implants. Presently it is the safest and most enduring method to
accomplish the job of transferring power to the inside of the body. In these systems, oscillating
current in an external coil of wire generates a changing magnetic field which induces a voltage
inside an implanted coil. The current resultant from this voltage can charge a battery or power the
device directly.
While a moving magnet might just as well be used to externally generate the field, an external coil
is simply
more practical. Apple has just filed a patent for hardware which could make the shake to charge
concept a reality, at least in theory. They claim a unique design incorporating internal moveable
magnets, and a flat printed circuit board coil. Current chip efficiencies will however preclude
practical implementation of this scheme for some time.
Many smartphone users will be wondering wonder whether their near field communication (NFC)
chip can be used to harvest power from a dedicated external source, or perhaps an ambient
electromagnetic source like WiFi. In theory it is possible and such systems are on the market
already, however not every NFC chip would be up to the task. To achieve maximum efficiency the
system should be optimized for a use at a particular separation distance, angle of incidence, phase,
and frequency such that it is in a resonant condition.
Resonance in an electromagnetic system can be likened to pushing a child on swing only when the
swing is at the high point. Anywhere else and the energy transferred to the child will be reduced.
If the separation distance is no more than a quarter of the wavelength, such a system can operate at
efficiencies up to 35%.
One thing to keep in mind when considering wireless charging: If your charging system is
throwing away nearly all of the 10 or so amps available from your wall outlet just to provide you
with convenient at-a-distance charging, not only will charging be wasteful but it will be slow.
Other wireless charging technologies relying on ultrasound or solar power are being developed,
for example by Ubeam. For the time being, however, magnetic inductive charging technologies —
spearheaded by the Qi consortium and smartphones like the Nokia Lumia 920 — such have taken
the stage.
Chargers for car batteries come in varying ratings. Chargers that are rated up to two amperes may
be used to maintain charge on parked vehicle batteries or for small batteries on garden tractors or
similar equipment. A motorist may keep a charger rated a few amperes to ten or fifteen amperes
for maintenance of automobile batteries or to recharge a vehicle battery that has accidentally
discharged. Service stations and commercial garages will have a large charger to fully charge a
battery in an hour or two; often these chargers can briefly source the hundreds of amperes required
to crank an internal combustion engine starter.

1.2: Electric vehicle batteries
Electric vehicle battery chargers (ECS) come in a variety of brands and characteristics. These
chargers vary from 1 kW to 7.5 kW maximum charge rate. Some use algorithm charge curves,
others use constant voltage, constant current. Some are programmable by the end user through a
CAN port, some have dials for maximum voltage and amperage, some are preset to specified
battery pack voltage, amp-hour and chemistry. Prices range from $400 to $4500.
A 10 amp-hour battery could take 15 hours to reach a fully charged state from a fully discharged
condition with a 1amp charger as it would require roughly 1.5 times the battery's capacity.
Public EV charging stations provide 6 kW (host power of 208 to 240 V AC off a 4amp circuit).
Rapid charging results in even faster recharge times and is limited only by available AC power,
battery type, and the type of charging system.
Onboard EV chargers (change AC power to DC power to recharge the EV's pack) can be:
Isolated: They make no physical connection between the A/C electrical mains and the
batteries being charged. These typically employ some form of inductive connection between the
grid and a charging vehicle. Some isolated chargers may be used in parallel. This allows for an
increased charge current and reduced charging times. The battery has a maximum current rating
that cannot be exceeded. Non-isolated: the battery charger has a direct electrical connection to the
A/C outlet's wiring.

2. LITERATURE SURVEY
H. Jahangir [1] proposes the market penetration of Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEVs) is
escalating due to their energy saving and environmental benefits. In order to
address PEVs impact on the electric networks, the aggregators need to accurately
predict the PEV Travel Behavior (PEV-TB) since the addition of a great number of
PEVs to the current distribution network poses serious challenges to the power system.
Forecasting PEV-TB is critical because of the high degree of uncertainties in drivers’
behavior. Existing studies mostly simplified the PEV-TB by mapping travel behavior
from conventional vehicles. This could cause bias in power estimation considering the
differences in PEV-TB because of charging pattern which consequently could bungle
economic analysis of aggregators. In this study, to forecast PEV-TB an artificial
intelligence-based method -feedforward and recurrent Artificial Neural
Networks (ANN) with Levenberg Marquardt (LM) training method based on Rough
structure - is developed
M. Naoui [2] proposes a wireless power transfer provides a new technology to charge
electric vehicles (EVs) without physical contact. This system has to partially resolve
the autonomy problem for EVs and buses. The majority of researchers were exposed
to two categories of this technique: stationary wireless charging (SWC) and dynamic
wireless charging (DWC) systems. Actually, the wireless recharge method is a recent
solution that eliminates the problem of waiting time in recharge stations. However, the
problem is always related to the vehicle status: if it is in motion and if it is in high‐
speed running mode. In this context, this paper defines and examines the
mathematical model of the DWC system and explains its function in relation to several
parameters related to the vehicle situation. This study explores the mathematical
model and identifies the best conditions for using the recharge method when the
vehicle is in motion. The analysis study was elaborated using MATLAB/Simulink
software, and the obtained results showed the variation of the state of charge,
depending on the vehicle speed.
Sharaf AM [3] proposed the ultra-fast charging (UFC) of the battery pack or the rapid
recharging of the battery requires specific demands, including both: the EV battery
and the influence on the power grid. In this regard, advanced power electronics
technologies are emerging significantly to replace the currently existing gas station
7|Page
infrastructures with the EV charging stations to move from conventional charging
(range of hours) to UFC (range of minutes). Among these power electronics
conversion systems, the DC-DC conversion stage plays an essential role in supplying
energy to the EV via charging the EV’s battery. Accordingly, this paper aims to
present possible architectures of connecting multiple Dual Active Bridge (DAB) units
as the DC-DC stage of the EV fast charger.
2.1EXISTING SYSTEM
The solar powered charging station for charging of electric vehicle describes design of solar powered charging
station for charging of electric vehicle that solves the key downside of fuel and pollution. Electric vehicles
have now hit the road worldwide and are slowly growing in numbers. Apart from environmental benefits
electric vehicles have also proven helpful in reducing cost of travel by replacing fuel by electricity which is
way cheaper. Well, here we develop an EV charging system that solves with a unique innovative solution.
This EV charging of vehicles without any wires, no need of stop for charging, vehicle charges while moving,
Solar power for keeping the charging system going, no external power supply needed. The system makes use
of a solar panel, battery, transformer, regulator circuitry, copper coils, AC to DC converter, at Mega controller
and LCD display to develop the system. The system demonstrates how electric vehicles can be charged while
moving on the road, eliminating the need to stop for charging. Thus, the system demonstrates a solar powered
wireless charging system for electric vehicles that can be integrated in the road.
2.2PROPOSED SYSTEM
Number of electrical vehicles charging stations increased significantly. Type of charges is based on cable and
need manual intervention to charge vehicle. These types of chargers are traditional and don’t have any
additional features except charging. Artificial intelligent play’s major role in every sector and it eliminates
manual presence. We can add artificial intelligent based charger that enables charger when it detects vehicle
through the camera. This type of EV chargers is not existed anywhere. The proposed project title is smart
wireless vehicle charger enable based on vehicle presence using AI.
ESP32 camera installed at wireless power transmitter side. When electric vehicle comes near to charger
then camera detects vehicle presence and send signal to Arduino. Arduino sends signal to relay to switch ON
wireless power transmitter. Electric vehicle has power receiver coil, which is fixed at bottom of electric
vehicle. Then it will charge battery, when vehicle came out of charger then camera detects electric vehicle
absence and switch off transmitter. Camera detects vehicle based on machine learning and classification
algorithms.

2: INTRODUCTION
An electric vehicle (EV) is a vehicle that uses one or more electric motors or traction
motors for propulsion. An electric vehicle may be powered through a collector system
by electricity from off-vehicle sources, or may be self-contained with a battery, solar
panels, fuel cells or an electric generator to convert fuel to electricity.[1] EVs include,
but are not limited to, road and rail vehicles, surface and underwater vessels, electric
aircraft and electric spacecraft.
EVs first came into existence in the mid-19th century, when electricity was among the
preferred methods for motor vehicle propulsion, providing a level of comfort and ease
of operation that could not be achieved by the gasoline cars of the time. Modern
internal combustion engines have been the dominant propulsion method for motor
vehicles for almost 100 years, but electric power has remained commonplace in other
vehicle types, such as trains and smaller vehicles of all types.
Commonly, the term EV is used to refer to an electric car. In the 21st century, EVs
have seen a resurgence due to technological developments, and an increased focus on
renewable energy and the potential reduction of transportation's impact on climate
change and other
10 | P a g e
environmental issues. Project Drawdown describes electric vehicles as one of the 100
best contemporary solutions for addressing climate change.`
Interest in EVs made a bit of a resurgence in the 1960s and 1970s, but it wasn’t until
the early 1990s that a more substantial push for driving electric was realized. This
surge was mainly driven by regulations and legislation, such as the California Air
Resources Board, which pushed for more fuel-efficient and emissions-free vehicles. In
1996, General Motors (GM) developed the first mass-produced battery-electric car, the
EV1. The EV1 had a range of approximately 60 miles and a top speed of 80 mph. By
2002, though, GM discontinued it.
The California Air Resources Board mandate had been weakened.

Controller:
The Controller is the Electric Vehicle, the need for a controller arises when an
electric vehicle
uses a BLDC motor for its working. Before understanding the need for a controller, let’s
first get to know about the types of motors used in electric vehicles. In EVs/HEVs step-
up and step-down converters are combined into one unit. An application of a step-up
converter is converting EV/HEV battery voltage (typically 180-300 volts) to about 650
volts to power the traction motor.
Inverter:
An inverter controls the frequency of power supplied to an AC motor to
control the rotation speed of the motor. Without an inverter, the AC motor would
operate at full speed as soon as the power supply was turned ON. You would not be
able to control the speed, making the applications for the motor limited.
Less than 6 kW “Electrified” vehicles – battery electric, hybrid electric and fuel cell
electric - operate at higher DC bus voltage and have higher power capacity

2.35: ON BOARD CHARGER
The on-board charger (OBC) is the system built into the car to recharge the
high voltage battery from the AC grid while the vehicle is parking. Higher driving
ranges of the plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and battery electric (BEV) vehicles are realized
by increasing the battery capacity and the energy efficiency of the electric components.
The used battery voltage classes tend to become standardized at approx. 450 V with a
trend towards higher voltages, as this supports faster charging times and enables lighter
cabling within the vehicle. Discrete high voltage components are widely used for OBC
(on-board charger) applications, as price pressure increasingly displaces module-based
solutions. The trend towards fast charging also impacts on the power range demanded
from OBC topologies, therefore new designs trend towards 11 kW or even up to 22
kW. This development, paired with a demand for high efficiency and power density at
low system cost, is a strong driver for the usage of three-phase solutions. Today
typically there is a

unidirectional power flow from the grid to the battery, but there is also bidirectional
use cased like a battery to load or battery to grid.

each have different characteristics, but vehicle manufactures are focused variants that
have excellent longevity. Compared to other mature battery technologies, Li-ion offers
many benefits. For example, it has excellent specific energy (140 Wh/kg) and energy
density, making it ideal for battery electric vehicles. Li-ion batteries are also excellent
in retaining energy, with a self-discharge rate (5% per month) that an order of
magnitude lower than NiMH batteries.

Lithium ion (Li-ion) batteries are now considered to be the standard for modern
battery electric vehicles. There are many types of Li-ion batteries that each have
different characteristics, but vehicle manufactures are focused variants that have
excellent longevity. Compared to other mature battery technologies, Li-ion offers
many benefits. For example, it has excellent specific energy (140 Wh/kg) and energy
density, making it ideal for battery electric vehicles. Li-ion batteries are also excellent
in retaining energy, with a self-discharge rate (5% per month) that an order of
magnitude lower than NiMH batteries.

2.38: DISADVANTAGES OF ELECTRIC VEHICLE
1.If the battery is faulty/ has problems/ needs to be replaced. An EV battery is very
expensive than a conventional one. It can be a problem for Electric Vehicles in India
2.Battery charging may take at-least an hour, whereas full tank petrol can be filled
within 5 minutes.
• Above all, Electric cars are expensive to buy.
3.The operation of electric cars are widely based on location. The main problem is
charging station which provides electricity in emergency case. It’s not readily
available at all the place like petrol pump which comes at-least every 5, 10 or 15 km –
that is, of course, attributed to the underdeveloped infrastructure.
4.Electric vehicle may have shorter range than Internal combustion engine car. As said
electric vehicle of same segment may have a range of 200-250 km. Whereas Internal
combustion engine car may have a range of approx. 600-700 km (with full tank).

REGULATED POWER SUPPLY
3: INTRODUCTION
Power supply is a supply of electrical power. A device or system that supplies electrical or other types
of energy to an output load or group of loads is called a power supply unit or PSU. The term is most commonly
applied to electrical energy supplies, less often to mechanical ones, and rarely to others.
A power supply may include a power distribution system as well as primary or secondary
sources of energy such as
Conversion of one form of electrical power to another desired form and voltage, typically involving
converting AC line voltage to a well-regulated lower-voltage DC for electronic devices. Low voltage, low
power DC power supply units are commonly integrated with the devices they supply, such
as computers and household electronics.
Batteries.
Chemical fuel cells and other forms of energy storage systems.
Solar power.
Generators or alternators.
20 | P a g e
The basic circuit diagram of a regulated power supply (DC O/P) with led connected as load is shown below
21 | P a g e
POWER SUPPLY DESIGN:
Transformation

Filtration
Regulation
The detailed explanation of each and every block and component mentioned above is as follows:
1. Transformation:
The process of transforming energy from one device to another is called transformation. For transforming
22 | P a g e
energy we use transformers.
Transformers:
A transformer is a device that transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another
through inductively coupled conductors without changing its frequency. A varying current in the first or
primary winding creates a varying magnetic flux in the transformer's core, and thus a varying magnetic
field through the secondary winding. This varying magnetic field induces a varying electromotive force
(EMF) or "voltage" in the secondary winding. This effect is called mutual induction.
If a load is connected to the secondary, an electric current will flow in the secondary winding
and electrical energy will be transferred from the primary circuit through the transformer to the load. This
field is made up from lines of force and has the same shape as a bar magnet.
If the current is increased, the lines of force move outwards from the coil. If the current is
reduced, the lines of force move inwards.
If another coil is placed adjacent to the first coil then, as the field moves out or in, the moving
lines of force will "cut" the turns of the second coil. As it does this, a voltage is induced in the second coil.
With the 50 Hz AC mains supply, this will happen 50 times a second. This is called MUTUAL INDUCTION
and forms the basis of the transformer.
The input coil is called the PRIMARY WINDING; the output coil is the SECONDARY
WINDING. Fig: 3.5 shows step-down transformer.
23 | P a g e
For example, if the secondary has half the primary turns; the secondary will have half the
primary voltage.
Another example is if the primary has 5000 turns and the secondary has 500 turns, then the
turn’s ratio is 10:1.
If the primary voltage is 240 volts then the secondary voltage will be x 10 smaller = 24 volts.
Assuming a perfect transformer, the power provided by the primary must equal the power taken by a load on
the secondary. If a 24-watt lamp is connected across a 24 volt secondary, then the primary must supply 24
watts.
To aid magnetic coupling between primary and secondary, the coils are wound on a metal
CORE. Since the primary would induce power, called EDDY CURRENTS, into this core, the core is
LAMINATED. This means that it is made up from metal sheets insulated from each other. Transformers to
work at higher frequencies have an iron dust core or no core at all.
Note that the transformer only works on AC, which has a constantly changing current and
moving field. DC has a steady current and therefore a steady field and there would be no induction.
Some transformers have an electrostatic screen between primary and secondary. This is to
prevent some types of interference being fed from the equipment down into the mains supply, or in the other
direction. Transformers are sometimes used for IMPEDANCE MATCHING.
We can use the transformers as step up or step down.
Step Up transformer:
In case of step up transformer, primary windings are every less compared to secondary
winding.
Because of having more turns secondary winding accepts more energy, and it releases more
voltage at the output side.
Step down transformer:
In case of step-down transformer, Primary winding induces more flux than the secondary
winding, and secondary winding is having less number of turns because of that it accepts less number of flux,
and releases less amount of voltage.
Battery power supply:
A battery is a type of linear power supply that offers benefits that traditional line-operated
power supplies lack: mobility, portability and reliability. A battery consists of multiple electrochemical cells
connected to provide the voltage desired. Fig: 3.6 shows Hi-Watt 9V battery
24 | P a g e
Fig 11: Hi-Watt 9V Battery
The most commonly used dry-cell battery is the carbon-zinc dry cell battery. Dry-cell batteries are made by
stacking a carbon plate, a layer of electrolyte paste, and a zinc plate alternately until the desired total voltage
is achieved. The most common dry-cell batteries have one of the following voltages: 1.5, 3, 6, 9, 22.5, 45, and
90. During the discharge of a carbon-zinc battery, the zinc metal is converted to a zinc salt in the electrolyte,
and magnesium dioxide is reduced at the carbon electrode. These actions establish a voltage of approximately
1.5 V.
The lead-acid storage battery may be used. This battery is rechargeable; it consists of lead and
lead/dioxide electrodes which are immersed in sulfuric acid. When fully charged, this type of battery has a
2.06-2.14 V potential (A 12 volt car battery uses 6 cells in series). During discharge, the lead is converted to
lead sulfate and the sulfuric acid is converted to water. When the battery is charging, the lead sulfate is
converted back to lead and lead dioxide A nickel-cadmium battery has become more popular in recent
years. This battery cell is completely sealed and rechargeable. The electrolyte is not involved in the electrode
reaction, making the voltage constant over the span of the batteries long service life. During the charging
process, nickel oxide is oxidized to its higher oxidation state and cadmium oxide is reduced. The nickel-
cadmium batteries have many benefits. They can be stored both charged and uncharged. They have a long
service life, high current availabilities, constant voltage, and the ability to be recharged.

using an IC in place of bridge rectifier. The picture of DB 107 is shown below
Features:
28 | P a g e
Fig 15 :Construction Of a Capacitor Fig 16 :Electrolytic Capacitor
Units of Capacitance:
Microfarad (μF) 1μF = 1/1,000,000 = 0.000001 = 10-6 F
Nanofarad (nF) 1nF = 1/1,000,000,000 = 0.000000001 = 10-9 F
Pico farad (pF) 1pF = 1/1,000,000,000,000 = 0.000000000001 = 10-12 F
Operation of Capacitor:
Think of water flowing through a pipe. If we imagine a capacitor as being a storage tank with
an inlet and an outlet pipe, it is possible to show approximately how an electronic capacitor works.
First, let's consider the case of a "coupling capacitor" where the capacitor is used to connect a
signal from one part of a circuit to another but without allowing any direct current to flow.
If the current flow is alternating between zero and a maximum, our "storage tank" capacitor will allow the
current waves to pass through.
29 | P a g e
However, if there is a steady current, only the initial short burst will flow until the "floating ball valve" closes
and stops further flow.
So a coupling capacitor allows "alternating current" to pass through because the ball valve doesn't get a
chance to close as the waves go up and down. However, a steady current quickly fills the tank so that all flow
stops.
A capacitor will pass alternating current but (apart from an initial surge) it will not pass d.c.

4. Regulation:
The process of converting a varying voltage to a constant regulated voltage is called as
regulation. For the process of regulation we use voltage regulators.
Voltage Regulator:
A voltage regulator (also called a ‘regulator’) with only three terminals appears to be a simple
device, but it is in fact a very complex integrated circuit. It converts a varying input voltage into a constant
‘regulated’ output voltage. Voltage Regulators are available in a variety of outputs like 5V, 6V, 9V, 12V and
15V. The LM78XX series of voltage regulators are designed for positive input. For applications requiring
negative input, the LM79XX series is used. Using a pair of ‘voltage-divider’ resistors can increase the output
voltage of a regulator circuit.
It is not possible to obtain a voltage lower than the stated rating. You cannot use a 12V
regulator to make a 5V power supply. Voltage regulators are very robust. These can withstand over-current
draw due to short circuits and also over-heating. In both cases, the regulator will cut off before any damage
occurs. The only way to destroy a regulator is to apply reverse voltage to its input. Reverse polarity destroys
30 | P a g e
the regulator almost instantly. Fig: 3.12 shows voltage regulator.
Resistors:
A resistor is a two-terminal electronic component that produces a voltage across its terminals that is
proportional to the electric current passing through it in accordance with Ohm's law:
V = IR
Resistors are elements of electrical networks and electronic circuits and are ubiquitous in most
electronic equipment. Practical resistors can be made of various compounds and films, as well as resistance
wire (wire made of a high-resistivity alloy, such as nickel/chrome).
The primary characteristics of a resistor are the resistance, the tolerance, maximum working voltage
and the power rating. Other characteristics include temperature coefficient, noise, and inductance. Less well-
known is critical resistance, the value below which power dissipation limits the maximum permitted current
flow, and above which the limit is applied voltage. Critical resistance is determined by the design, materials
and dimensions of the resistor.
Resistors can be made to control the flow of current, to work as Voltage dividers, to dissipate
power and it can shape electrical waves when used in combination of other components. Basic unit is ohms.
Theory of operation:
Ohm's law:
The behavior of an ideal resistor is dictated by the relationship specified in Ohm's law:
V = IR
Ohm's law states that the voltage (V) across a resistor is proportional to the current (I) through
it where the constant of proportionality is the resistance (R).
31 | P a g e
Power dissipation:
The power dissipated by a resistor (or the equivalent resistance of a resistor network) is
calculated using the following:
3.4. LED:
A light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor light source. LEDs are used as indicator
lamps in many devices, and are increasingly used for lighting. Introduced as a practical electronic component
in 1962, early LED’s emitted low-intensity red light, but modern versions are available across the visible,
ultraviolet and infrared wavelengths, with very high brightness. The internal structure and parts of a led are
shown in figures 3.15 and 3.16 respectively.
32 | P a g e
Fig 20: Inside a LED Fig 21: Parts of a LED
Working:
The structure of the LED light is completely different than that of the light bulb. Amazingly,
the LED has a simple and strong structure. The light-emitting semiconductor material is what determines the
LED's color. The LED is based on the semiconductor diode.
When a diode is forward biased (switched on), electrons are able to recombine with holes
within the device, releasing energy in the form of photons. This effect is called electroluminescence and the
color of the light (corresponding to the energy of the photon) is determined by the energy gap of the
semiconductor. An LED is usually small in area (less than 1 mm2), and integrated optical components are
used to shape its radiation pattern and assist in reflection. LED’s present many advantages over incandescent
light sources including lower energy consumption, longer lifetime, improved robustness, smaller size, faster
switching, and greater durability and reliability. However, they are relatively expensive and require more
precise current and heat management than traditional light sources. Current LED products for general lighting
are more expensive to buy than fluorescent lamp sources of comparable output. They also enjoy use in
applications as diverse as replacements for traditional light sources in automotive lighting (particularly
indicators) and in traffic signals. The compact size of LED’s has allowed new text and video displays and
sensors to be developed, while their high switching rates are useful in advanced communications technology.
The electrical symbol and polarities of led are shown in fig: 3.17.

Arduino Uno
Arduino Uno R2 Front Arduino Uno SMD Arduino Uno Front Arduino Uno Back
Overview:
The Arduino Uno is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328 (datasheet). It has 14 digital
input/output pins (of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs), 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz ceramic resonator, a
USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button. It contains everything needed to support
the microcontroller; simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it with a AC-to-DC adapter
or battery to get started.
The Uno differs from all preceding boards in that it does not use the FTDI USB-to-serial driver chip.
Instead, it features the Atmega16U2 (Atmega8U2 up to version R2) programmed as a USB-to-serial
converter.
Revision 2 of the Uno board has a resistor pulling the 8U2 HWB line to ground, making it easier to put into
DFU mode.
Revision 3 of the board has the following new features:
1.0 pinout: added SDA and SCL pins that are near to the AREF pin and two other new pins placed
near to the RESET pin, the IOREF that allow the shields to adapt to the voltage provided from the
board. In future, shields will be compatible both with the board that use the AVR, which operate
with 5V and with the Arduino Due that operate with 3.3V. The second one is a not connected pin,
that is reserved for future purposes.
Stronger RESET circuit.
Atmega 16U2 replace the 8U2.
"Uno" means one in Italian and is named to mark the upcoming release of Arduino 1.0. The Uno and
36 | P a g e
version 1.0 will be the reference versions of Arduino, moving forward. The Uno is the latest in a series of
USB Arduino boards, and the reference model for the Arduino platform; for a comparison with previous
versions, see the index of Arduino boards.
Summary:
Microcontroller ATmega328
Operating Voltage 5V
Input Voltage (recommended) 7-12V
Input Voltage (limits) 6-20V
Digital I/O Pins 14 (of which 6 provide PWM output)
Analog Input Pins 6
DC Current per I/O Pin 40 mA
DC Current for 3.3V Pin 50 mA
Flash Memory 32 KB (ATmega328) of which 0.5 KB used by bootloader
SRAM 2 KB (ATmega328)
EEPROM 1 KB (ATmega328)
Power:
The Arduino Uno can be powered via the USB connection or with an external power supply. The power
source is selected automatically.
External (non-USB) power can come either from an AC-to-DC adapter (wall-wart) or battery. The adapter
can be connected by plugging a 2.1mm center-positive plug into the board's power jack. Leads from a battery
can be inserted in the Gnd and Vin pin headers of the POWER connector.
The board can operate on an external supply of 6 to 20 volts. If supplied with less than 7V, however, the 5V
pin may supply less than five volts and the board may be unstable. If using more than 12V, the voltage
regulator may overheat and damage the board. The recommended range is 7 to 12 volts.
The power pins are as follows:
VIN. The input voltage to the Arduino board when it's using an external power source (as opposed
to 5 volts from the USB connection or other regulated power source). You can supply voltage
through this pin, or, if supplying voltage via the power jack, access it through this pin.
5V.This pin outputs a regulated 5V from the regulator on the board. The board can be supplied with
power either from the DC power jack (7 - 12V), the USB connector (5V), or the VIN pin of the
board (7-12V). Supplying voltage via the 5V or 3.3V pins bypasses the regulator, and can damage
your board. We don't advise it.
3V3. A 3.3 volt supply generated by the on-board regulator. Maximum current draw is 50 mA.
GND. Ground pins.
37 | P a g e
Memory:
The ATmega328 has 32 KB (with 0.5 KB used for the bootloader). It also has 2 KB of SRAM and 1 KB of
EEPROM (which can be read and written with the EEPROM library).
Serial: 0 (RX) and 1 (TX). Used to receive (RX) and transmit (TX) TTL serial data. These pins are
connected to the corresponding pins of the ATmega8U2 USB-to-TTL Serial chip.
External Interrupts: 2 and 3. These pins can be configured to trigger an interrupt on a low
value, a rising or falling edge, or a change in value. See the attachInterrupt() function for details.
PWM: 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, and 11. Provide 8-bit PWM output with the analogWrite() function.
SPI: 10 (SS), 11 (MOSI), 12 (MISO), 13 (SCK). These pins support SPI communication using
the SPI library.
LED: 13. There is a built-in LED connected to digital pin 13. When the pin is HIGH value, the
LED is on, when the pin is LOW, it's off.
The Uno has 6 analog inputs, labeled A0 through A5, each of which provide 10 bits of resolution (i.e. 1024
different values). By default they measure from ground to 5 volts, though is it possible to change the upper
end of their range using the AREF pin and the analogReference() function. Additionally, some pins have
specialized functionality:
TWI: A4 or SDA pin and A5 or SCL pin. Support TWI communication using the Wire library.
AREF. Reference voltage for the analog inputs. Used with analogReference().
Reset. Bring this line LOW to reset the microcontroller. Typically used to add a reset button to
shields which block the one on the board.
See also the mapping between Arduino pins and ATmega328 ports. The mapping for the Atmega8,
168, and 328 is identical.
Communication:
The Arduino Uno has a number of facilities for communicating with a computer, another Arduino, or other
microcontrollers. The ATmega328 provides UART TTL (5V) serial communication, which is available on
digital pins 0 (RX) and 1 (TX). An ATmega16U2 on the board channels this serial communication over
USB and appears as a virtual com port to software on the computer. The '16U2 firmware uses the standard
USB COM drivers, and no external driver is needed. However, on Windows, a .inf file is required. The
Arduino software includes a serial monitor which allows simple textual data to be sent to and from the
Arduino board. The RX and TX LEDs on the board will flash when data is being transmitted via the USB-
to-serial chip and USB connection to the computer (but not for serial communication on pins 0 and 1).
38 | P a g e
A SoftwareSerial library allows for serial communication on any of the Uno's digital pins.
The ATmega328 also supports I2C (TWI) and SPI communication. The Arduino software includes a Wire
library to simplify use of the I2C bus; see the documentation for details. For SPI communication, use the
SPI library.
Programming
The Arduino Uno can be programmed with the Arduino software (download). Select "Arduino Uno from
the Tools > Board menu (according to the microcontroller on your board). For details, see the reference
and tutorials.
The ATmega328 on the Arduino Uno comes preburned with a bootloader that allows you to upload new
code to it without the use of an external hardware programmer. It communicates using the original STK500
protocol (reference, C header files).
You can also bypass the bootloader and program the microcontroller through the ICSP (In-Circuit
Serial Programming) header; see these instructions for details.
The ATmega16U2 (or 8U2 in the rev1 and rev2 boards) firmware source code is available . The
ATmega16U2/8U2 is loaded with a DFU bootloader, which can be activated by:
On Rev1 boards: connecting the solder jumper on the back of the board (near the map of Italy) and
then resetting the 8U2.
On Rev2 or later boards: there is a resistor that pulling the 8U2/16U2 HWB line to ground,
making it easier to put into DFU mode.
You can then use Atmel's FLIP software (Windows) or the DFU programmer (Mac OS X and Linux) to
load a new firmware. Or you can use the ISP header with an external programmer (overwriting the DFU
bootloader). See this user-contributed tutorial for more information.
39 | P a g e
of protection. If more than 500 mA is applied to the USB port, the fuse will automatically break the
connection until the short or overload is removed.
Physical Characteristics
The maximum length and width of the Uno PCB are 2.7 and 2.1 inches respectively, with the USB
connector and power jack extending beyond the former dimension. Four screw holes allow the board to be
attached to a surface or case. Note that the distance between digital pins 7 and 8 is 160 mil (0.16"), not an
even multiple of the 100 mil spacing of the other pins.
Rather than requiring a physical press of the reset button before an upload, the Arduino Uno is designed in a
way that allows it to be reset by software running on a connected computer. One of the hardware flow
control lines (DTR) of the ATmega8U2/16U2 is connected to the reset line of the ATmega328 via a 100
nanofarad capacitor. When this line is asserted (taken low), the reset line drops long enough to reset the
chip. The Arduino software uses this capability to allow you to upload code by simply pressing the upload
button in the Arduino environment. This means that the bootloader can have a shorter timeout, as the
lowering of DTR can be well-coordinated with the start of the upload.
This setup has other implications. When the Uno is connected to either a computer running Mac OS X or
Linux, it resets each time a connection is made to it from software (via USB). For the following half- second
or so, the bootloader is running on the Uno. While it is programmed to ignore malformed data (i.e. anything
besides an upload of new code), it will intercept the first few bytes of data sent to the board after a
connection is opened. If a sketch running on the board receives one-time configuration or other data when it
first starts, make sure that the software with which it communicates waits a second after opening the
connection and before sending this data.
The Uno contains a trace that can be cut to disable the auto-reset. The pads on either side of the trace can be
soldered together to re-enable it. It's labeled "RESET-EN". You may also be able to disable the auto-reset
by connecting a 110 ohm resistor from 5V to the reset line; see this forum thread for details.

INTRODUCTION:
The Wireless Power Transfer and Charging Module can be used in electronic equipments in common use for
close wireless charging or power supply. Consist of a Transmitter & Receiver and coil, it could serve as a
replacement for the Wireless Power Supply with stable 5V output voltage and maximum 600mA output
current. Its small size and insulation coil is more suitable for using in wireless project.
This module use an electromagnetic field to transfer electric energy between a transmitter circuit and a receiver
circuit.
An induction coil creates an alternating electromagnetic field from within the transmitter circuit powered with
12V. The second induction coil takes power from the electromagnetic field and converts it back into electrical
current to the receiver circuit that outputs 5V - 600mA.

Working Principle
42 | P a g e
During any energy conversion there will be losses in going from one form to another. The magnitude of those
losses is what dictates the practicality of any type of wireless charging. Magnetic or inductive charging, in
particular has been effectively used for some time to power various kinds of biomedical implants. Presently it is
the safest and most enduring method to accomplish the job of transferring power to the inside of the body. In
these systems, oscillating current in an external coil of wire generates a changing magnetic field which induces
a voltage inside an implanted coil. The current resultant from this voltage can charge a battery or power the
device directly.
While a moving magnet might just as well be used to externally generate the field, an external coil is simply
more practical. Apple has just filed a patent for hardware which could make the shake to charge concept a
reality, at least in theory. They claim a unique design incorporating internal moveable magnets, and a flat
printed circuit board coil. Current chip efficiencies will however preclude practical implementation of this
scheme for some time.
Many smartphone users will be wondering wonder whether their near field communication (NFC) chip can be
used to harvest power from a dedicated external source, or perhaps an ambient electromagnetic source like
WiFi. In theory it is possible and such systems are on the market already, however not every NFC chip would
be up to the task. To achieve maximum efficiency the system should be optimized for a use at a particular
separation distance, angle of incidence, phase, and frequency such that it is in a resonant condition.
Resonance in an electromagnetic system can be likened to pushing a child on swing only when the swing is at
the high point. Anywhere else and the energy transferred to the child will be reduced. If the separation distance
is no more than a quarter of the wavelength, such a system can operate at efficiencies up to 35%.
One thing to keep in mind when considering wireless charging: If your charging system is throwing away
nearly all of the 10 or so amps available from your wall outlet just to provide you with convenient at-a-distance
charging, not only will charging be wasteful but it will be slow. Other wireless charging technologies relying
on ultrasound or solar power are being developed, for example by Ubeam. For the time being, however,
magnetic inductive charging technologies — spearheaded by the Qi consortium and smartphones like the Nokia
Lumia 920 — such have taken the stage.

CONCLUSION AND FUTURE SCOPE
CONCLUSION:
The high penetration of electric vehicles (EVs) will burden the existing power delivery
infrastructure if their charging and discharging are not adequately coordinated.
Dynamic pricing is a special form of demand response that can encourage EV owners
to participate in scheduling programs. Therefore, EV charging and discharging
scheduling and its dynamic pricing model are important fields of study. Many
researchers have focused on artificial intelligence-based EV charging demand
forecasting and scheduling models and suggested that artificial intelligence techniques
perform better than conventional optimization methods such as linear, exponential,
and multinomial logit models. However, only a few research studies focused on EV
discharging scheduling (i.e., vehicle-to-grid, V2G) because the concept of EV
discharging electricity back to the power grid is relatively new and evolving.
FUTURE SCOPE:
The future of solar wireless charging stations holds immense promise, especially when combined
with artificial intelligence (AI). Let’s explore some exciting possibilities:
1. Efficient Energy Harvesting:
o AI can optimize solar panel efficiency by dynamically adjusting their orientation based on real-
time sunlight patterns. This ensures maximum energy capture throughout the day.
o Smart algorithms can predict cloud cover and adjust charging rates accordingly, preventing
sudden energy drops.
2. Dynamic Load Management:
o AI can intelligently distribute energy among multiple vehicles at a charging station. It
considers factors like battery capacity, charging speed, and vehicle arrival times.
o By analyzing historical data, AI can predict peak charging hours and allocate resources
efficiently.
3. Predictive Maintenance:
o AI algorithms monitor the health of charging infrastructure components (such as connectors,
cables, and inverters).
o Early detection of faults allows for timely maintenance, reducing downtime and ensuring
reliable service.
4. User Experience Enhancement:
o AI-powered interfaces can provide real-time information to users, such as available charging
slots, estimated wait times, and personalized charging recommendations.
o Voice assistants can guide users through the charging process and answer queries.

5. Grid Integration and Demand Response:
o AI can balance energy demand by adjusting charging rates based on grid load. During peak
hours, it may slow down charging to prevent strain on the grid.
o Integration with smart grids enables bidirectional energy flow, allowing EVs to feed excess
energy back into the grid.
6. Safety and Security:
o AI algorithms can detect anomalies (e.g., overheating, unauthorized access) and trigger alerts.
o Facial recognition and license plate recognition enhance security at charging stations.
7. Adaptive Pricing Models:
o AI can analyze user behavior, traffic patterns, and energy costs to offer dynamic pricing.
o Time-of-use pricing encourages off-peak charging, reducing strain on the grid.
8. Autonomous Charging Robots:
o AI-driven robots can autonomously connect EVs to charging stations, optimizing space
utilization.
o These robots ensure seamless charging without human intervention.
9. Integration with Renewable Energy Sources:
o AI can coordinate solar charging stations with wind turbines, battery storage, and other
renewables.
o It balances energy supply and demand, making the charging ecosystem more sustainable.
10. Research and Innovation:
o Ongoing research aims to improve wireless charging efficiency, range, and safety.
o AI accelerates innovation by simulating various scenarios and predicting outcomes.
