Smart Vehicle-to-Vehicle Wireless Charging System with IoT-Based Location Tracking

The increased use of Electric Vehicles (EVs) provides smart charging solutions to prevent limitations and dependence on fixed charging stations. This research work presents a Smart Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) wireless charging system with IoT based location tracking to allow direct energy transmission between vehicles. This system integrates a dual-switch method to control the energy transfer. One switch will initiate a charging request and the other switch will allow or reject the request. The Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) method is used for efficient power transmission and an ESP32 microcontroller allows real-time data collection and system management. The main hardware components used in this research are a voltage and current sensor, a temperature sensor, and a GPS module for monitoring energy flow, safety and tracking the vehicle’s location. This work also improves the charging range, reduces dependency and allows decentralized energy transmission. This study provides a cost effective solution to improve EV charging performance and access by combining IoT technology with wireless charging.
