Recently, the efficient management system for photovoltaic power plants has been required due to the continuously increasing construction of photovoltaic power plants. In this paper, we propose a cloud-based intelligent management system for many photovoltaic power plants. The proposed system stores the measured data of power plants using Hadoop HBase which is a column-oriented database, and processes the calculations of performance, efficiency, and prediction the amount of power generation by parallel processing based on Map-Reduce model. And, Web-based data visualization module allows the administrator to provide information in various forms.

A Smartphone is an intelligent device combined mobile phone and pc's support functions, and can perform multiple functions to satisfy the demands of users. It has excellent processing power and communication modules(DMB, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC etc) to carry out the demands of users. But continuous using of battery power on processor and equipped modules causes acceleration of battery consumption. This means that effective power management in devices like smartphone is important. Therefore, the management of power consumption on system execution and communication module is a serious issue in this field of study. In this paper, we would like to propose a communication module selection algorithm based on energy consumption parameter of each communication module and data transfer time. Our scheme automatically select appropriate communication system to reduce high energy consumption on bluetooth sleep mode so that this scheme is more efficient and effective thus improving user convenience in longer usage time. Experimental results showed the 20% energy saving.

In case, sensor system performs where it is difficult to access physically and it is in the poor environment, it is limited to communicate by using wire and installing power module in sensor system. In this paper, it suggests how information is obtained from telemetry sensor by means of inductive coupling without battery. Comparing with the telemetry sensor system of inductive coupling by the power supply, this system estimates the capacitance of sensor with high precision in using RLSE, not the process of modulation and demodulation. In order to activate this system, inductive model is used and in case of time variant parameter, telemetry sensor system which has got high rate in accuracy is implemented by using the forgetting factor.

In this paper, we proposed the method to design fuzzy controller using the experience of the operating expert and experimental numeric data for the robust control about the noise and disturbance instead of the traditional PID controller for the main steam temperature control of the thermal power plant. The temperature of main steam temperature process has to be controlled uniformly for the stable electric power output. The process has the problem of the hunting for the cases of various disturbances. In that case, the manual action of the operator happened to be introduced in some cases. We adopted the TSK (Takagi-Sugeno-Kang) model as the fuzzy controller and designed the fuzzy rules using the informations extracted directly from the real plant and various operating condition to solve the above problems and to apply practically. We implemented the real fuzzy controller as the Function Block module in the DCS(Distributed Control System) and evaluated the feasibility through the experimental results of the simulation.

In the paper, a pattern analysis to decide whether the 1st local peak power point near open circuit voltage is the global peak power point or not, in case that the voltage and current at the 1st local peak power point are in a specific range, for Maximum Power Point Tracking on the photo voltaic power conversion system. When a solar cell panel array is shaded partially, multi-local peak power points can occur. That makes it hard to search the global peak power point. Through Tableau analysis using by piecewise linear solar cell model, V-I characteristic of a solar cell panel array circuit when partial shading problem happens, is simulated. The global peak power and the local peak power points is confirmed by simulations. Voltage and current values and patterns of V-I characteristic are analyzed. The generating efficiency of the solar cell panel array is improved, when the solar cell panel array circuit is operated at the power point estimated by setting up specific range.

Multi-Agent Robotic System (MARS) is a system that independent autonomous robots in the restricted environments infer their status from pre-assigned conditions and operate their jobs through the cooperation with each other. In the MARS, a robot contains sensor part to percept the situation around themselves, communication part to exchange information, and actuator part to do given work. Especially, in order to cooperate with other robots, communicating with other robots is one of the essential elements. Because Bluetooth has many advantages such as low power consumption, small size module package, and various standard protocols, Bluetooth is rated as one of the efficient communicating technologies which can apply to small-sized robot system. In this paper, we will develop Bluetooth communicating system for autonomous robots. For the purpose, the communication system must have several features-separated module, flexible interface. We will discuss how to construct and what kind of procedure to develop the communicating system.

Smart grid technology can be called grid techniques to improve the efficiency of the electric power by exchanging bidirectional information of electric power with real-time between electric power suppliers and consumers. Recently, the solar power generation system is being applied actively. However the solar power system has several problems leading to reduce overall electricity generation, because the difficult of the diagnosis and the solar power system failure such as PV(PhotoVoltaics) and inverter. In order to build an efficient smart grid, a stable electric power energy requirements capture and management and early fault detection is essentially required in solar power generation system. In this paper, it is designed to monitor the operating status of the solar power monitoring system from a remote location through a RS-485 or TCP/IP communication module to monitoring the output of solar power energy and abnormal phenomenon, to developing the measurement module and to transfer measured data.

Due to development of power electronics technology, power conversion system are tend to small size, easy to use and light weight. Especially motor control system have increased concerns and interests about IPM(Intelligent Power Module) inverter, which contains protection circuit, drive circuit and power devices. So, we manufactured 3-phase inverter using DIP-IPM(Dual in-line package IPM) PS21245- E(1.5 Kw) made by MITSUBISHI Electric. Some of these features include -HVIC to Provide level shifting and gate drive for high-side IGBTs. The interface circuit between pwm controller and DIP-IPM can made by direct connection. In order to validate dynamic performance of the proposed system, the actual experiment worked out at wide speed range. The developed system is shown as a good dynamic characteristics.

네트워크 통신(network communication)을 위해서는 개별 정보가전기기의 전원인가 상태가 상시 유지되어야 하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위해, 통신요청시에는 그 때마다 통신동작이 가능하도록 충분한 전력공급을 제공하는 절대조건을 만족시키는 반면, 통신대기시에는 최소한의 전력만이 공급됨으로서 해서 초절전을 실현할 수 있는 정보가전기기의 PLC통신모듈용 전원장치를 먼저 개발하였다. 그리고, 최근 절전이 강조되고 있은 시점에서, 제품자체의 절전기능이 포함되어 전기에너지를 절약할 수도 있지만, 사용자의 절전의지와 행위에 의해서도 전기에너지를 절약할 수 있다. 이러한 관점에서 볼때 본 연구개발에서는, 제품의 전원플러그를 콘센트에 꽂는 과정에서 콘센트와 전원플러그 사이에 전기에너지량을 계측할 수 있는 전자회로 및 계측값을 나타내는 표시장치 그리고 필요에 따라서 통신기능을 포함하는 전기콘센트 단위의 Electric Energy Metering Sensor(이하 EEMS) 모듈을 개발하였다.
