This study proposed an approach to dynamic wireless charging that uses a rotating receiver coil. Our simulation study focused on the verification of a novel way of increasing the coupling coefficient and power transfer stability by following the flux of the transmitting coils. To obtain the highest possible coupling by means of the FEM analysis, we studied the optimization of the trajectory of the angular velocity of the rotating receiver. The coupling coefficient trajectories that were obtained were simulated by means of the state space model with three transmitters. Our comprehensive analysis showed that the proposed approach of wireless power transmission enabled a 40% increase in the usage of track space.
