  As public awareness of environmental protection continues to grow, the trend
of integrating more electric vehicles (EVs) into the transportation sector is
rising. Unlike conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, EVs can
minimize carbon emissions and potentially achieve autonomous driving. However,
several obstacles hinder the widespread adoption of EVs, such as their
constrained driving range and the extended time required for charging. One
alternative solution to address these challenges is implementing dynamic
wireless power transfer (DWPT), charging EVs in motion on the road. Moreover,
charging stations with static wireless power transfer (SWPT) infrastructure can
replace existing gas stations, enabling users to charge EVs in parking lots or
at home. This paper surveys the communication infrastructure for static and
dynamic wireless charging in electric vehicles. It encompasses all
communication aspects involved in the wireless charging process. The
architecture and communication requirements for static and dynamic wireless
charging are presented separately. Additionally, a comprehensive comparison of
existing communication standards is provided. The communication with the grid
is also explored in detail. The survey gives attention to security and privacy
issues arising during communications. In summary, the paper addresses the
challenges and outlines upcoming trends in communication for EV wireless
charging.
