SPR-4607: Full-scale Dynamic Wireless Power Transfer and Pilot Project Implementation

The objectives of this project are: (i) develop a better understanding of pavement/ dynamic wireless power transfer (DWPT) system interaction, including DWPT reaction to environment and traffic loads and pavement materials responses to operational DWPT; and (ii) support the design and installation of a 215 kW DWPT system pilot for heavy-duty vehicles on an existing INDOT roadway. The pilot project will help develop construction techniques and provide a real-world testbed for optimizing the pavement/DWPT system.
