About

K. Selvakumar is a researcher specializing in wireless power transfer (WPT) systems and embedded control systems for robotics. His most cited work, "Frequency Split Elimination of Short Range Wireless Power Transfer System by Active Matching Tuning Circuit" (2016, 5 citations), addresses a critical challenge in magnetic resonance coupling-based WPT: the frequency split phenomenon that degrades power transfer efficiency. By introducing an active matching tuning circuit, Selvakumar provides a practical solution to maintain optimal resonance and transfer coefficient, advancing the reliability of short-range wireless charging technologies. In a parallel application-focused contribution, "Gesture recognition vehicle using PIC microcontroller" (2020, 3 citations) demonstrates his versatility in embedded systems, designing a hand-controlled robotic vehicle with a transmitter glove and receiver module driven by a PIC microcontroller. This work highlights his ability to integrate sensing and actuation for intuitive human-machine interfaces. Selvakumar’s research bridges theoretical circuit analysis with tangible engineering solutions, offering impactful contributions to both power electronics and robotics. His work serves as a foundation for students and researchers exploring efficient WPT systems and gesture-based control, underscoring his role in advancing practical, user-centric technologies.
