The on-line electric vehicle : wireless electric ground transportation systems

This book details the design and technology of the on-line electric vehicle (OLEV) system and its enabling wireless power-transfer technology, the "shaped magnetic field in resonance" (SMFIR). The text shows how OLEV systems can achieve their three linked important goals: reduction of CO2...
