This project goes beyond pure power-transfer optimization by integrating shielded capacitive power transfer (S-CPT) with planar antennas and energy-harvesting elements into a single roadway-embedded electromagnetic system. The aim is to simultaneously realize high-efficiency dynamic charging for in-motion electric vehicles, controlled near-field leakage, and self-powering of roadside sensors. Cross-disciplinary collaboration with antenna and electromagnetic-compatibility researchers within Kyushu University supports unified design of the electrode array, antenna layout, and harvesting subsystem, building a foundation for Japan-led smart-road infrastructure.
