Abstract
The proper system planning (design) of in-motion charging for electric vehicles has the potential to allow the vehicles to realize charge-sustaining operation (unlimited driving range and zero downtime) at minimum overall cost. There is a tradeoff between system power and road coverage. Low-power system requires significant length of roads to be electrified, which increases the infrastructure cost. A high-power system requires powerful components, which might be infeasible due to technology limitations.
