This study presents a useful heuristic algorithm to classify vehicle classes using vehicle length information, which is extracted from inductive loop vehicle signatures. A high-speed scanning equipment was used to extract more detailed change of inductance magnitude for individual vehicles. Vehicle detection time and individual vehicle speeds were used to derive vehicle length information that is an input of the proposed algorithm. The spatial and temporal transferability tests were further conducted to evaluate algorithm. The spatial and temporal transferability tests were further conducted to evaluate algorithm performance more systematically. It is expected that the proposed method would be useful for obtaining vehicle classification information from wide-spread existing loop infrastructure.

In this paper, we propose a multi-mode wireless power transfer (WPT) system with a dual loop structure. The proposed multi-mode WPT system consist of outer loop module which can operate at two different frequency bands including 6.78 MHz magnetic resonance WPT mode and 13.56 MHz near field communication (NFC) mode and inner loop module connected with outer loop which can operate at two different frequency bands including WPC mode and PMA mode based on inductive coupling standards. In order to be able to embed this system into smartphone battery back cover, the electrical designs are optimized and then the size was fixed $45{\times}90{\times}0.35mm3$ (including ferrite sheet) which is the same commercial smartphone. The proposed multi-mode WPT module can cover WPC and PMA mode based on inductive coupling. Moreover, it has more than 20 dB return loss characteristics at two different frequency bands including 6.78 MHz and 13.56 MHz, and shows more than 70 % transfer efficiency between resonant coils at 6.78 MHz in magnetic resonant charging environment.

This paper presents a mew design of an inductive position sensing system with high sensitivity. The designed system consists of the driving coils, position-detecting coils, and closed loop formed magnetic blocks. To obtain high sensitivity we design a symmetric and closed loop type measuring system with small air-gaps. The elements that affect the system characteristics are turn ratio, excitation frequency, air-gap size, capacitance effect, and load resistance. By experimental investigation, the influences of these elements are examined and the system parameters are selected. The sensitivity of the newly designed system is greater than 2800mV/(V mm) and the linearity error is below${\pm}0.01%; in; the; range; of; {\pm}200{\mu}m$.

A polarization resistance is generally used to estimate the corrosion rate in the corrosion monitoring by an electrochemical impedance method. When the Faradaic impedance has a time constant due to the reaction intermediate, the electrochemical impedance describes more than one loop on the complex plane. For example, the electrochemical impedance of iron in acidic solution shows capacitive and inductive loops on the complex plane. In this case, the charge transfer resistance and the polarization resistance are determined at middle and low frequency ranges, respectively. Which should be selected for corrosion resistance in corrosion monitoring, the charge transfer resistance or the polarization resistance'? In the present paper, the above-mentioned question is examined theoretically and experimentally.

We develop a wireless, contact free power transfer mechanism that is safer than the direct metallic contact and robust to imperfect alignment on landing at the base station. A magnetic field is created using inductors on both the transmitting and receiving sides. We use the inductive wireless recharging to increase autonomy and decrease the sensor interference by reducing the inductor loop size. By locating four independent small receiver loops and corresponding four circuits around the quadrotor UAV, we can increase safety from circuit malfunctions in comparison to the use of just one loop. On the base station, four folding robotic bars are used to realign the receiver loops over the transmitter loops. After adequate recharging as measured by battery voltages or power consumption at the bae station, the UAV sends a signal to the base station to open the robotic bars and takes off once freed from the robotic bars.

A newly designed inductive micro displacement detecting system is presented. The proposed inductive system consists of driving coils, position-detecting coils, cores, and closed-loop formed magnetic blocks. The cores and magnetic blocks are made of Mn-Zn ferrite. When AC sine wave is applied to the driving coils, the time derivative flux is generated within the system, and then induced voltages arise in the position-detecting coils according to the core\`s position. Putting the cores to be moved proportionally to the input displacement, the induced voltage is proportional to input displacement. The parameters that affect the system characteristics are turn ratio, air-gap size, excitation frequency, overlap area, load resistance, capacitance effect, and so forth. Based on the experimental results, the system parameters are selected in such a way as to have high sensitivity ad stable responses. The sensitivity of the proposed inductive displacement-detecting system is greater than 2800mV.V-1mm-1 and the linearity error is below $\pm$0.10% in the range of $\pm$200㎛.

In order to operate the computerized traffic signal system, it requires the detectors which ensure the exact detections of actual traffic data (e.g., traffic volume, occupancy and velocity of vehicles). The octagonal detectors are used currently in Korea. However, the maintenance of the detectors has many problems with the road repairs and the constructions on the pavement, and failure due to the disconnection of the wires. Serious delay due to the long installation time of loops also causes the traffic disturbances. The low sensitivities and splash-over effect can sometimes create error data after installation of the octagonal loops. The mai purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of domestic use of the round (circular) inductive loops which developed recently in U.S.A. It was found that the round loops are comparable to the existing octagonal loops. In addition, the use of the high quality of materials in the round loop system can reduce the current problems and weakpoints of the octagonal loops. The installation cost of the round loop was found out as economic as the octagonal loop. The installation time of the round loop system can be reduced with the specially equipped loop truck, and wide/deep slots without sharp corners can extend the durability without serious stress of loop head wires. In conclusion, the round loop is superior to the octagonal type in overall points. It is recommended that the localization of the materials and equipments of round loop system is required to carry out the extensive local installations. Also, several contractors to meet the nationwide demand should be arranged to gurantee the proper maintenance and operation of the systems.
