A microgrid which is composed of distributed generation systems, energy storage systems and loads is operated in the grid-connected mode and in the islanded mode. Especially, in the islanded mode, a microgrid should maintain frequency in the allowed range. The frequency is decided by a balance between power supply and power demand. In general, the frequency is controlled by using battery energy storage systems (BESSs) in the microgrid. Especially, droop control is applied to controlling BESSs in the microgrid. Meanwhile, over-charging and deep-discharging of BESS in operation and control cause life-shortening of batteries. In this paper, a fuzzy droop control is proposed to change droop gains adaptively by considering state of charge (SOC) of BESSs to improve the life cycle of the battery. The proposed fuzzy droop control adjusts droop gains based on SOC of BESSs in real time. In other to show the performance of the proposed fuzzy droop control, simulation based on Matlab/Simulink is performed. In addition, comparison of the convention droop control and the proposed fuzzy droop control is also performed.

여러 배터리 셀을 직렬로 연결해서 사용하는 BMS에서 사용 가능 용량을 최대화시키기 위하여 각 셀의 전압을 같도록 맞춰주는 셀 밸런싱 기술이 필요하다. 다중 권선 변압기를 사용하는 능동 셀 밸런싱 회로에서 셀 간 직접적 (direct cell-to-cell)으로 에너지를 전달하는 밸런싱 회로는 PMOS 스위치와 NMOS 스위치를 구동하기 위한 게이트 구동 칩은 PMOS 스위치와 NMOS 스위치 개수 만큼 TLP2748 포토커플러(photocoupler)와 TLP2745 포토커플러가 필요하므로 원가가 증가하고 집적도가 떨어진다. 그래서 본 논문에서는 포토커플러를 사용하여 PMOS와 NMOS 스위칭소자를 구동하는 대신 70V BCD 공정기반의 PMOS 게이트 구동회로와 NMOS 게이트 구동회로, 스위칭 시간이 개선된 PMOS 게이트 구동회로와 NMOS 게이트 구동회로를 제안하였다. 스위칭 시간이 개선된 PMOS 게이트 구동 스위치의 ${\Delta}t$는 8.9ns이고, NMOS 게이트 구동 스위치의 ${\Delta}t$는 9.9ns로 양호한 결과를 얻었다.

MANET(Mobile Ad hoc Network)은 두 대 이상의 이동 무선 단말로 구성되는 네트워크로 단말의 한정된 에너지 때문에 많은 제한성을 가지게 된다. MANET에서 특정 노드들의 조기 에너지 소진은 네트워크 성능에 큰 영향을 줄 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이에 대한 해결책으로 송, 수신지 사이에 가능한 많은 노드 비중첩 다중 경로를 구축하고, 각 경로상 노드가 가진 평균 에너지, 최소 에너지, 혹은 에너지 분산 값에 따라 다중 경로를 통해 패킷을 분산 전송한다. 에너지 정보 수집 방법을 크게 Static 방식과 Dynamic 방식으로 나누며, 수집하는 에너지 정보에 따라 Static-Average, Static-Minimum, Static-Variance, 그리고, Dynamic-Average, Dynamic-Minimum, Dynamic-Variance 등 6가지 방식으로 나누고, NS2 시뮬레이션을 통해 그 성능을 비교하고 평가한다.

Quality of Service (QoS) is a critical feature of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) with routing algorithms. Data packets are moved between cluster heads with QoS using a number of energy-efficient routing techniques. However, sustaining high scalability while increasing the life of a WSN's networks scenario remains a challenging task. Thus, this research aims to develop an energy-balancing component that ensures equal energy consumption for all network sensors while offering flexible routing without congestion, even at peak hours. This research work proposes a Gravitational Blackhole Search Optimised splay tree routing framework. Based on the splay tree topology, the routing procedure is carried out by the suggested method using three distinct steps. Initially, the proposed GBSO decides the optimal route at initiation phases by choosing the root node with optimum energy in the splay tree. In the selection stage, the steps for energy update and trust update are completed by evaluating a novel reliance function utilising the Parent Reliance (PR) and Grand Parent Reliance (GPR). Finally, in the routing phase, using the fitness measure and the minimal distance, the GBSO algorithm determines the best route for data broadcast. The model results demonstrated the efficacy of the suggested technique with 99.52% packet delivery ratio, a minimum delay of 0.19 s, and a network lifetime of 1750 rounds with 200 nodes. Also, the comparative analysis ensured that the suggested algorithm surpasses the effectiveness of the existing algorithm in all aspects and guaranteed end-to-end delivery of packets.

Load balancing is a significant technique to prolong a network's lifetime in sensor network. This paper introduces a hybrid approach named as Load Distributing Hybrid Routing Protocol (LDHRP) composed with a border node routing protocol (BDRP) and greedy forwarding (GF) strategy which will make the routing effective, especially in mobility scenarios. In an existing solution, because of the high network complexity, the data delivery latency increases. To overcome this limitation, a new approach is proposed in which the source node transmits the data to its respective destination via border nodes or greedily until the complete data is transmitted. In this way, the whole load of a network is evenly distributed among the participating nodes. However, border node is mainly responsible in aggregating data from the source and further forwards it to mobile sink; so there will be fewer chances of energy expenditure in the network. In addition to this, number of hop counts while transmitting the data will be reduced as compared to the existing solutions HRLBP and ZRP. From the simulation results, we conclude that proposed approach outperforms well than existing solutions in terms including end-to-end delay, packet loss rate and so on and thus guarantees enhancement in lifetime.

In this paper a direct cell-to-cell charge balancing circuit which can transfer the charge from any cell to any cell in the battery string is introduced. In the proposed topology the energy in the high voltage cell is transferred to the low voltage cell through the simple operation of a dc-dc converter to get fast equalization. Furthermore, the charge equalization can be performed regardless of the battery module 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 protect the battery. In order to demonstrate the advantages 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 shortest compared with those of other methods.

LIDAR (LIght Detection And Ranging) is an active remote sensing technology which provides 3D coordinates of the Earth's surface by performing range measurements from the sensor. Early small footprint LIDAR systems recorded multiple discrete returns from the back-scattered energy. Recent advances in LIDAR hardware now make it possible to record full digital waveforms of the returned energy. LIDAR waveform decomposition involves separating the return waveform into a mixture of components which are then used to characterize the original data. The most common statistical mixture model used for this process is the Gaussian mixture. Waveform decomposition plays an important role in LIDAR waveform processing, since the resulting components are expected to represent reflection surfaces within waveform footprints. Hence the decomposition results ultimately affect the interpretation of LIDAR waveform data. Computational requirements in the waveform decomposition process result from two factors; (1) estimation of the number of components in a mixture and the resulting parameter estimates, which are inter-related and cannot be solved separately, and (2) parameter optimization does not have a closed form solution, and thus needs to be solved iteratively. The current state-of-the-art airborne LIDAR system acquires more than 50,000 waveforms per second, so decomposing the enormous number of waveforms is challenging using traditional single processor architecture. To tackle this issue, four parallel LIDAR waveform decomposition algorithms with different work load balancing schemes - (1) no weighting, (2) a decomposition results-based linear weighting, (3) a decomposition results-based squared weighting, and (4) a decomposition time-based linear weighting - were developed and tested with varying number of processors (8-256). The results were compared in terms of efficiency. Overall, the decomposition time-based linear weighting work load balancing approach yielded the best performance among four approaches.
