Wireless　charging　for　electric　vehicles　(EVs)　enjoys　advantages　such　as　automation,　safety,　and　convenience.　For　the　most　popular　magnetic　induction　wireless　power　transfer　(WPT)　technology,　different　coupled　coils　are　utilized　such　as　the　unipolar　coil,　the　bipolar　coil,　and　the　quadruple　coil.　Thus,　the　interoperability　of　different　coil　types　should　be　solved.　Particularly,　the　transmitter　should　be　interoperable　with　different　receiving　coil　types,　able　to　charge　different　EVs　This　paper　proposes　an　interoperable　solution　for　the　two　most　popular　coil　types:　the　unipolar　coil　and　the　bipolar　coil.　The　unipolar　and　bipolar　coils　are　adopted　on　the　transmitter　side.　Based　on　the　transmitter-side　capacitor-inductor-capacitor-capacitor　(CLCC)　compensation　and　the　alteration　of　the　switching　pattern,　when　the　receiving　coil　is　a　unipolar　coil,　the　transmitter-side　unipolar　coil　can　work　as　the　power　transmission　coil　and　the　bipolar　coil　can　work　as　the　compensating　inductor;　when　the　receiving　coil　is　a　bipolar　coil,　the　transmitter-side　bipolar　coil　can　work　as　the　power　transmission　coil　and　the　unipolar　coil　can　work　as　the　compensating　inductor.　In　this　way,　the　transmitter　can　be　interoperable　with　the　unipolar　or　bipolar　receiving　coil.　The　mathematical　mode　is　built.　A　simulation　model　and　an　experimental　prototype　is　established　to　validate　the　effectiveness　of　the　proposal.　The　experimental　results　show　that　the　interoperability　of　the　receiver-side　unipolar　or　bipolar　coil　can　be　achieved.　(C)　2022　The　Author(s).　Published　by　Elsevier　Ltd.
