Abstract :
An analysis is presented for a class-E power inverter that exhibits any of the following characteristics: (1) load-independent, nonzero output voltage, but not load-independent efficiency; (2) load-independent nonzero efficiency, but not load output voltage; (3) simultaneous load-independent, nonzero output voltage and load-independent nonzero efficiency. Solutions for a class-E inverter with load-independent, nonzero output voltage and 100% efficiency are given. The infinite set of solutions is reduced by practical considerations. Circuit parameters for practical load-independent class-E inverters are provided
