In this study, the in-situ parameter identification method for active magnetic bearing (AMB) actuator based on an open-loop balancing scheme is proposed. The scheme utilizes the relation between the compensating voltage and the known unbalance force. Main advantage of this method is that it is easy to use, yet it gives the actuator dynamics on the actual operating condition of an AMB system. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme compensates the known unbalance accurately and consequently identifies the actuator dynamics effectively.

리튬 폴리머 배터리는 높은 안전성, 빠른 충전 및 긴 라이프 사이클 등으로 인해 에너지 저장치(ESS: Energy Storage System), 전기자동차(EVs: Electric Vehicles)등에 채택이 되어 사용되고 있으며, 그리고 현재는 농업용 드론에서 까지 사용이 되고 있다. 그러나 리튬 폴리머 배터리는 과충 방전에는 리튬-이온 배터리 내의 격차구조가 파괴되어 배터리 수명이 줄어들게 되며, 과충 방전을 방지하기 위해 불균등한 셀 전압을 균등 제어 할 수 있는 셀 밸런싱 시스템이 필수적이다. 본 논문은 각 셀의 충 방전할때의 전압차이를 검출하여 불균형된 셀을 확인하여 비선형 시스템에 적합한 퍼지 제어기를 개발하여 적용한 셀별 밸런싱 알고리즘을 제안한다. 본 논문은 농업용 드론의 배터리팩의 셀 밸런싱을 퍼지제어를 하여 셀 간 균등 제어를 위해 설계하였으며, 최종 결과로 셀 간 밸런싱이 잘 되는지 확인하고 자 셀이 2개 있을 때와 6개 그리고 최종적으로 12개의 각 셀 밸런싱이 되는지를 확인하였다. 이는 다른 제품에도 사용할 수 있는지를 실험하고자 하였으며, 확인결과 사용된 셀의 개수와는 관계없이 셀별 밸런싱이 잘 되고 있음을 확인하였다.

In this paper, multiple ESS(Energy Storage System) control strategy for microgrids is presented. Installation of ESS becomes mandatory when microgrids are used to supply high quality power to the loads. The one of main functions of the ESS is to maintain power balance. However ESS has limitation of its capacity and instantaneous injecting power. Power allocation method based on SOC(State Of Charge) of each ESS is proposed. P-Q control is employed as the basic control strategy for the distributed ESSs. By using the proposed method, the coefficients in the conventional P-Q control method are modified. The ESSs with higher SOC inject more active power, while those with lower SOC inject less, leading to more balanced SOC levels among the ESSs. The proposed method is demonstrated by simulation using PSCAD/EMTDC.

In this paper a cell-to-cell fast charge balancing circuit for the Lithium-Ion battery module is proposed. In the proposed topology the energy in a high voltage cell is transferred directly to a low voltage cell through the operation of the dc-dc converter. Furthermore, the charge balancing can be performed regardless of the battery operation whether it is being charged, discharged or relaxed. The monitoring circuit composed of a DSP and a battery monitoring IC is designed to monitor the cell voltage and detect the inferior cell thereby protecting the battery module from failure. In order to demonstrate the performance of the proposed topology, a prototype circuit was designed and applied to 12 Lithium-Ion battery module. It has been verified with the experiments that the charge equalization time of the proposed method was shorter compared with those of other methods.

This paper presents a novel theoretical method based on power analysis to obtain voltage reference values for an inverter-based compensator. This type of compensator, which is installed in parallel with the load, is usually referred to as the active filter. The proposed method is tailored to design the compensator in such a way that it can simultaneously balance the asymmetric load, as well as correct the power factor of the supply side. For clarity, a static compensator is first considered and a recursive algorithm is utilized to calculate the reactance values. The algorithm is then extended to calculate voltage reference values when the compensator is inverter based. It is evident that the compensator would be asymmetric since the load is unbalanced. The salient feature associated with the proposed method is that the circuit representation of system load is not required and that the load is recognized just by its active and reactive consumptions. Hence, the type and connection of load do not matter. The validity and performance of the new approach are analyzed via a numerical example, and the obtained results are thoroughly discussed.

This paper proposes a convenient thermal modeling method for loss distribution control method of 3-level Active NPC(Neutral Point Clamped) inverter. In the drawback of conventional 3-level NPC, the generated losses can occur unbalance in each switching device, as a result, thermal utilization of designed system has been decreased. In order to compensate unbalanced losses, Active NPC inverter performed loss balancing control with thermal modeling during operation of each switching device. Therefore, this paper deals with a convenient thermal modeling method based on newton's law of cooling rather than conventional thermal modeling method. Both simulation and experimental results based on 10kW 3-level Active NPC inverter confirm the validity of the analysis performed in the study.

Most turbo machines, which operate at high speeds, such as gas turbines, jet engines, pumps, and compressors are prone to perrturbing vibrations. The best vibration control method for rotors is to eliminate destabilizing factors. Careful balancing application of "more stable" oil-lubricated bearing, such as tilting pad bearings or use of anti-swirl devices in seals, are examplse of passive vibration control methods. the use of magnetic bearing is an active control method. An obvious advantage of active control is that it provides damping (or modifies system stiffness or other parameters) only when there is a need for that, i.e., in emergency states, while not affecting the rotor normal operational conditions. Moreover, active control methods provide exact position control through on-line control. In this study, a magnetic actuator, digital contrliier using DSP, and bipolar operational power supply/amplifiers were developed to show the effectiveness of reducing robot vibration. Also the curve fitting procedure to obtain the transfer function of frequency dependent component was developed. Results presented in this dissertation will provide a well-defined technical parameters in designing magnetic damper system.er system.

This paper presents a scalable multiple camera collaboration strategy for active tracking applications in large areas. The proposed approach is based on distributed mechanism but emulates the master-slave mechanism. The master and slave cameras are not designated but adaptively determined depending on the object dynamic and density distribution. Moreover, the number of cameras emulating the master is not fixed. The collaboration among the cameras utilizes global and local sectors in which the visual correspondences among different cameras are determined. The proposed method combines the local information to construct the global information for emulating the master-slave operations. Based on the global information, the load balancing of active tracking operations is performed to maximize active tracking coverage of the highly dynamic objects. The dynamics of all objects visible in the local camera views are estimated for effective coverage scheduling of the cameras. The active tracking synchronization timing information is chosen to maximize the overall monitoring time for general surveillance operations while minimizing the active tracking miss. The real-time simulation result demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed method.

다양한 분산 소프트웨어 컴포넌트들의 정보 교환을 위해 비동기, 다대다 메시지 교환이 가능한 브로커 구조가 보편적으로 사용되고 있다. 특별히 많은 사용자 및 메시지를 지원하기 위해 높은 확장성의 분산 메시지 브로커가 제안되었다. 브로커의 가용성 및 장애 극복 능력을 향상시키기 위해 메시지 레플리카를 사용하여 액티브-스탠바이 혹은 액티브-액티브 구조를 사용하게 된다. 그러나, 액티브-스탠바이의 경우 낮은 가용성의 문제, 그리고 액티브-액티브의 경우 동기화 오버헤드가 전체 성능을 낮추는 문제를 가진다. 본 논문에서는 장애 상황의 극복이 가능하면서도 분산 메시지 브로커의 가용성을 향상시키기 위해 메시지 레플리카를 액티브-액티브 구조로 구성하여 분산 브로커의 요청 부하를 분산시키는 기법을 제안하였다. 스탠바이 레플리카들이 액티브 레플리카로부터 요청을 전달받아 나누어 처리함으로써 브로커를 구성하는 노드 수의 증가 없이 요청 부하를 분산시킬 수 있었다. 이때 메시지 동기화 과정은 분산 코디네이터를 이용, 분산 락을 구현함으로써 모든 액티브 레플리카들이 한 때에 동기화를 진행하도록 하였고 각 액티브 레플리가 동기화를 할 때보다 추가적인 오버헤드를 적게 하였다. 본 제안의 성능을 평가하기 위해 제안 기법과 기존의 액티브-스탠바이 기법을 기반으로 브로커 프로토타입을 구현하고 메시지의 생산, 소비 및 전체 생산-소비 구간 처리 성능을 측정 비교하였고, 분산 락으로 인한 오버헤드 수식을 제시하였다. 실험 결과에서 본 제안 기법이 더 높은 확장성과 메시지 처리성능을 보임을 확인하였다.

In recent years, multilevel technology has become an effective and practical solution in the field of moderate and high voltage applications. This paper discusses an APF with a three-level NPC inverter. Obviously, the application of such converter to APFs is hindered by the problem of the voltage unbalance of DC capacitors, which leads to system instability. This paper comprehensively analyzes the theoretical limitations of the neutral-point voltage balancing problem for tracking different harmonic currents utilizing current switching functions from the space vector PWM (SVPWM) point of view. The fluctuation of the neutral point caused by the load currents of certain order harmonic frequency is reported and quantified. Furthermore, this paper presents a close-loop digital control algorithm of the DC voltage for this APF. A PI controller regulates the DC voltage in the outer-loop controller. In the current-loop controller, this paper proposes a simple neutral-point voltage control method. The neutral-point voltage imbalance is restrained by selecting small vectors that will move the neutral-point voltage in the direction opposite the direction of the unbalance. The experiment results illustrate that the performance of the proposed approach is satisfactory.
