As an alternate form in the road transportationsystem, electric vehicle (EV) can help reduce the fossil-fuelconsumption. However, the usage of EVs is constrained by thelimited capacity of battery. Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) can increase the driving range of EVs by charging EVs inmotionwhen they drive through a wireless charging laneembedded in a road. The amount of power that can be suppliedby ...Show More
Drivers cruising for parking are an important cause of traffic congestion in cities. Smart parking applications that make easier the parking search task can help to reduce this traffic and its associated environmental burden. This paper presents the conceptual modeling phase of ParkinGain, a smart parking application that helps drivers to find and reserve parking spots based on their current needs...Show More
Dynamic Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) is a developing technology which provides wireless extension of the power supply of an electric vehicle while it is in motion, allowing extending its range. Therefore, the communication between the roadside controller (RSC) and the onboard controller (OBC) needs to be wireless too. In order to support the deterministic behavior needed for WPT real-time control...Show More
