Dynamic wireless power transfer (DWPT) systems for in-motion electric vehicle (EV) charging often suffer from unstable power delivery due to spatial variations in magnetic coupling caused by vehicle misalignment. This study presents a stabilization-oriented DWPT design methodology that prioritizes minimizing spatial variations of mutual inductance rather than maximizing peak coupling under perfect alignment. A ferrite-backed double-D coil configuration is analyzed and refined using three-dimensional finite-element electromagnetic modeling integrated with circuit-level co-simulation to evaluate coupling behavior, magnetic field homogeneity, and power transfer efficiency under realistic dynamic misalignment conditions. The proposed design achieves a coupling coefficient of 0.50–0.55 under aligned conditions and exhibits smooth, predictable degradation for lateral offsets up to 40–50 mm. Quantitative analysis demonstrates a low spatial coupling gradient of approximately 0.001 mm−1, indicating that abrupt coupling transitions are effectively suppressed during vehicle motion. The system attains a maximum power transfer efficiency of 84.37% at an 80 mm air gap, while maintaining stable performance under both lateral and vertical displacement. Comparative evaluation shows improved misalignment tolerance and coupling stability relative to conventional double-D configurations. The results demonstrate that electromagnetic field shaping focused on coupling smoothness is an effective and practical strategy for reliable dynamic wireless charging of electric vehicles.
