In this paper, a single-stage alternating current (AC)-DC converter is proposed for the automated-guided vehicle wireless charging system. The proposed converter is capable of soft-switching under all input voltage (VAC: 220 Vrms ± 10%), load conditions (0-1 kW), and air gap changes (40-60 mm) by phase control at a fixed switching frequency. In addition, controlling a wide output voltage (Vo: 39~54 VDC) is possible by varying the link voltage and improving the input power factor and the total harmonic distortion factor. Experimental results were verified by making a prototype of a 1-kW wireless power charging system that operates with robustness to changes in air gaps.

The SRM (Switched Reluctance Motor) has a more inherent simple mechanical structure, greater ruggedness and higher efficiency than a conventional AC motor. It is for these reasons that SRM is widely applied in an extensive range of industrial applications. In this paper, SRM is designed and analyzed for EPS (Electrical Power Steering) application. Electrical power steering in a vehicle plays the role of reducing a driver's handling control power. For proper design, a FEM analysis is implemented according to the rotor structure. Using both a FEM and a magnetic circuit analysis, a designed motor is simulated and tested. The effectiveness of the suggested SRM drive for EPS application is verified by the prototype motor drive tests.

In this paper, we developed a sensor for monitoring the leakage current through the chassis of the robot. The leakage current sensor needs to be developed because it is a necessary part to prevent electric shock accidents that may occur through the chassis of a robot or an electric vehicle. This leakage monitoring sensor was developed to be mounted directly on the chassis of the robot. This sensor protects the control system from noise by discharging static and high-frequency noise that may occur in the chassis of the robot and monitors the leakage current by measuring the amount of current discharged through the ground. In this paper, a leakage monitoring sensor was developed with a simple structure using resistors, capacitors and OP-AMP, and the performance was evaluated.

In order to establish the robust controller design technique of series wound motor driver system. This paper proposes a method of Bang-Bang controller using a series wound motor driver system under improperly variable load. A Bang-Bang controller structure is simpler than the structure of PID plus Bang-Bang controller. This paper shows that a general 8 bits microprocessor is used efficiently implementing such an algorithm. The calculation time of software is extremely small when compared with conventional PID plus Bang-Bang controller. Both nonlinear operating characteristics of digital switching elements and describing function methods are used for the analysis and synthesis. Real time implementation of Bang-Bang controller is achieved. Concept design strategy of the control and PWM waveform generation algorithms are presented in the paper.

In this paper, we propose a digital controller design methodology for an LLC resonant converter which has been widely used due to the advantages of low switching loss and high efficiency. We establish a mathematical model of an LLC resonant converter using the extended describing function concept and propose a controller design method based on the Ziegler Nichols control parameter tuning criteria. The voltage controller of an LLC resonant converter is designed based on the derived small signal model and the performance of the controller is verified by MATLAB simulations. The validity and the control performance of the designed voltage controller for the LLC resonant converter is analyzed through some simulations for the case of load variations and circuit modeling errors.

Gyroscope is a key sensor for inertial navigation system (INS) which is a navigational instrument necessary to guide and control a free vehicle, and an important instrument for defense, aeronautical, and space industries that is and will be actively involved. In this study, design parameters, scale factor and linearity, of torquer which is one of the components of two degree of freedom dynamically tuned gyroscope (DTG) are presented. The magnetic circuit of torquer is so complicated that it is difficult to analyze it with analytic method. Thus these parameters are calculated by using finite element method with analysis of magnetic vector potential for axisymmetric 3-dimension magnetic field.

The ultracapacitor module has recently been recast for use in hybrid energy storage systems (HESSs). As a result, accurate state-of-charge (SOC) estimation for an ultracapacitor module is as important as that of primary sources in order to be utilized efficiently in an energy storage system (ESS). However, while SOC estimation via the open-circuit voltage (OCV) method is generally used due to its linear characteristics compared with other ESSs, this method results in many errors in cases of highcurrent charging/discharging within a short time period. Accordingly, this paper introduces a dynamic SOC estimation algorithm that is capable of SOC compensation of an ultracapacitor module even when there is a current input and output. A cycle profile that simulates the operating conditions of a mild-HEV was applied to a vehicle simulator to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

This paper presents a near-minimum time path planning algorithm for autonomous driving. The problem of near-minimum time path planning is an optimization problem in which it is necessary to take into account not only the geometry of the circuit but also the dynamics of the vehicle. The path planning algorithm consists of a candidate path generation and a velocity optimization algorithm. The candidate path generation algorithm calculates the compromises between the shortest path and the path that allows the highest speeds to be achieved. The velocity optimization algorithm calculates the lap time of each candidate considering the vehicle driving performance and tire friction limit. By using the calculated path and velocity of each candidate, we calculate the lap times and search for a near-minimum time path. The proposed algorithm was evaluated via computer simulation using CarSim and Matlab/Simulink.

The purpose of this paper is to study the failure cases in relation to system of Air Bag in vehicle happened in the field. In the first example, it was separated the soldering parts connected the wire pin between air bag module and clock spring of air bag. Whenever the pin shake by the car's vibration, the driver verified the malfunction phenomenon appeared air bag warning lamp on instrument panel in front of driver's seat. in car inside room. The second example, it verified the warning lamp lighting phenomenon of air bag by produced the circuit plate non-contacting of single an element in air bag electronic control unit. The third example, it verified the light of air bag warning indicator lamp by separated with soldering parts connecting inner pin and resistance terminal of seat belt pretensioner using passenger seat. The fourth example, when the passenger car crash a back of truck, the former bumper get jammed under the latter as the roof height of car low less than that. Therefore, the impact of Car's collision verified that don't transfer with body frame of vehicle because of no attachment impact sensor in it.
