Zusammenfassung:A traffic queue having at least one charging lane including a plurality of ground-side wireless charging assemblies installed in the ground and spaced to permit at least two vehicles to be simultaneously charged by wireless power transfer is used to charge electric vehicles. During charging, the vehicle is aligned with a first ground-side wireless charging assembly in the at least one charging lane and charged using the first ground-side wireless charging assembly in a first charging session. The vehicle is then advanced to a second ground-side wireless charging assembly and aligned with the second ground-side wireless charging assembly and charged using the second ground-side wireless charging assembly in a second charging session. A time-ordered sequence of messaging is provided between the first and second ground-side wireless charging assemblies and a vehicle-side wireless charging assembly to control providing power and billing for the first and second charging sessions.
